Can anybody help. I have just been looking on ancestry at the 1851 census and may have found a relative. His name is William Attfield and is a lodger aged 31 or 37. Can anyone read his occupation as it's driving me mad. Everyone I have asked can't work it out. Many thanks rebekah |

The first lodger that I see is in Chertsey Surrey but his age is 22. He's a servant, an under gardener. |

The one in Farnham is only 18 years old. General servant - it's quite clear on this one. Are you certain which one you want? Kath. x |
