Hi guys,
Was wondering if anybody could recommend some good sources/books for researching occupations?
A couple of my ancestors were recorded as paviors (pavers) and I'd like to research the trade/job. The kind of things I'm looking for are salary, uniform, length of day/working week...
wanted to write a little creative piece of family history for university - for my portfolio.
I expect they probably wore smocks, and the job was hard work and horrendous, but fancied delving a little deeper into the occupation.
Thanks,
Darren
