Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 164 Send Message	Hello, I have an ancestor from Liverpool, whose occupation on his wedding certificate is Glass Packer. Anyone have any idea what this work is? I don't know whether it's packing and shipping glasses to beer houses, or packing glass for windows, or some other sort of glass packing! Any suggestions greatfully received :-). Many thanks, Em
