Another good one: 1881 - George Huyton born 1842 has ''Too Lazy to Work'' entered as his occupation. This has been heavily crossed through, but you can still read it!! Merry

I love the comments on the census. I was looking earlier and in the occupation column, for one chap it had .. 'Nothing'... I wonder if his wife answered for him??

Whilst doing a look-up for a fellow member I spotted this entry, It brought a smile to my face. Anybody lucky enough to be tracing him would know 'exactly' where he was born!...... Frank Toddy abt 1868 (London in This House) Son St Mary Newington London Lib:))
