Hi,
A census is saying that my GGGG grandfather was a lawyer.
Is there any way I can find out more about where he worked ?
Thanks,
Vanessa

Is it definitely Lawyer or could it be Sawyer? There are more Sawyers about at that time and the two words are often misinterpreted.

What name is it and which census?
