I think Charles age 3 is listed as a gardener

Researching:
Anstee/Bucks; Russell/London; Durose; Pease/North Yorks; Kelly/IoM

There's something wrong with that 1871 census. Why is 3 year old Charles listed before the others? Children are usually listed in order. Also when you look at the original John is also a son and he's also 3. There's also something written in the occupation column for 3 year old Charles but I can't make out what it says.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Frances - the image is appallingly faint and I think the John Wall aged 30 is actually another child
