I think you'll find she doesn't actually have an occupation. Forge labourer has been written against her name in error.........and crossed out. It refers to the son's occupation......not Hannah's. Reg

I would be most grateful if someone could check the occupation of the following person for me in the 1871 census, as I am unable to decipher it. Hannah Bibby.....husband.....Richard Bibby. Hannah born 1843.......Richard born 1839 Living at 18 Egypt Street Thanks in advance Kathlyn

I may not have the right people........it would help, Kathlyn, if you could say which town they are in.....or at least where one of them was born. Reg

Which county are they living. Can't find them at the moment. UPDATE - Found them in Liverpool. Richard is a Carter. Seems to be a different family to the one Reg has found. Kath. x

I think it must be Richard's occupation that Kathlyn wants. Kath. x
