thanks all so much for your help

Quite likely they did have a servant as a Master Mariner was quite a good job. However she could have just lived with them and been a servant elsewhere.

so does that mean they had a servant in 1851?

KathleenBell Report 2 Nov 2007 21:57

Think they must be mistranscribed on the 1861 as I can't find them at the moment which is why I went to the 1851 census.

wow thanks for all the help I think it looks like the result from Kathleen for the 1851 certainly looks the best match as it fits with both fathers name and the age on the Marriage certificate and father occupation.

if that is correct then we dont have a match for Thomas Thompson in 1861? that matched the mothers name and the children.


how cheeky am I......

If the certificate says Mas Mariner it will be short for Master Mariner.

it does have occupation on the certificate but I cannot read it - the second part may say mariner so i make it mas mariner but that makes not sense to me
if anyone want to try and transcribe it I would willingly scan and email to you if you pm me
