	Hi Can anyone tell me was usual for an ' Assistant Medical Superintendant ' to register a death in hospital in 1883, and is it usual for husbands occupation to be on there even tho he was dead ? and any ideas what a ' General Carman ' would have been about that time Thank you Julie

	Driver of (horse-drawn) vehicles for transporting goods. Carmen were often employed by railway companies for local deliveries and collections of goods and parcels. Modern day van driver. A Carter typically drove a light two wheeled carriage. Also sometimes someone who drove horse-drawn trams was called a Carman.
