I have got a copy of the page with George Brook and family. If you would like a copy of the page send your email address direct and I will forward it to you. cheers Victor

Thanks Victor, bad writing, will have to study what georges proffesion was!! cant make it out Thanks again Julie

I thought is was something like Ry Lighterman. What the Ry is I don't know, or is it Rif Lighterman? cheers

I think Thomas is a Bricklayer.

George is a Lighterman James - Housemason Do you have him in 1881? Does the profession match? Oh..General labourer in 1881, not helpful :) Sam

Source information: RG10/4793 Registration district: Hull Sub-registration district: Myton ED, institution, or vessel: 40 Folio: 78 Page: 25 looks like 'lighterman' to me jess Isn't there a whole thread about lightermen somewhere?

thanks everyone i thought it says lighterman too, whatever that is? yes it matches john thomas or thomas as a bricklayer in 1881 thanks again, if you know of a site for lightermen do you have an address julie

thankyou rosemary
