What was the occupation?

[Daft Bat]

I am unable to read the occupation of Charles READER in the 1841 census in Horseheath, Cambridgeshire.

Ref: Piece 66, Book 8, Folio 5, page 4.

His entry is about halfway down the right-hand column and he is with his wife Clara.

His father Daniel is the next entry down and is an Ag Lab but I am unable to work out what it says for Charles.

Thank you.

I think it says Ag Lab - look at Richard Bentley - 3rd from bottom on facing page, and Ag Lab is written a similar way.

Agreed

Thanks. I was just going by the difference to Daniel, but it pays to look at others on the page.
