Would some kind person take a look at the 1901 Census to see if they can decipher the occupation please. |

It looks like tinman to me. For more people to help you may need to change your birth dates from the 90s to the 80s as Ancestry have transcribed them wrongly. |

Thank you Margaret & Christina. Whoever transcribe the record has taken the tick as a 1 making everyone 10 years older. |

A tinman was someone who made or repaired things made from tin. |
