I think she is a Flower maker - on the opposite page there is a dress m refering to a dressmaker and chair m refering to a chairmaker

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

Thanks all
I too thought maybe flower girl?

I'm guessing Music Smith means composer? Maybe if he was a brass worker, this was making brass instruments? and music smith means player?

Looks like they could all be in the same building. It seems to be No 63 and further down the page is No 64.

Can't read the occupation though.

I cant read this very well at all. Can any of you make out the occupations of Abraham Harrow and his Daughter Elizabeth?

Also
I have noticed the name John Avery beneath the family. Mary Harrow (abraham's wife) was born Avery. Could this be her father? is he living next door?
Many thanks
Nicola
