Hi all, the occupation of one of my ancestors was written as a muleter. Does anyone know what a muleter is and what the job involved? Would it be anything to do with mules?!? I have listed the details of the census below if you want to have a look yourself. Many thanks, Amy |

it looks like when you magnify it looks like Malster with malt next to it perhaps something to do with making beer? |

Ive just looked up a 'malster' on a dictionary website and it came up with 'maltster' which is 'a maker of malt'. Thank you for your help Jeanette. |
