	Thanks ladies. It's glaringly obvious when seen through another pair of eyes.

	Can anyone take a look at the 1851 Census for me re the occupation for the following: Amy Scott born c1828 in Danbury, Essex. I'm having real trouble reading the occupation for her and her mother, Hannah. I've magnified the image enough to be able to read 'W Receiving Parish relief'. I would just like to know what that first word says. Thanks. Joy
