*TBC* Archive? husbandman or gamekeeper occupations

Post by Sarun4519 »

Does anyone have a definition of these two occupations? Would they have been interchangeable? And were they more common to specific regions in England or widespread across the whole country? How do the compare to "ag lab'?

All information is appreciated1

Thanks
SR

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.
