George SMIRTHWAITE's occupation: M R C S. L & L S A General Practitioner

The initials stand for: Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of London & Licentiate of the Society of Apothecaries.

Anne's middle name looks like Ruyson (not Bryson as Ancestry claims!).

Richard (not John!) Edward KINGWORTH is born in Hadgan - at least that's what it says. Couldn't find any such place on Streetmap or in the Genuki gazetteer.

Sarah MACANULTEY (with an E before the Y) seems to have been born in Werlport, only no such place exists. Westport would make more sense, but this enumerator seems to consistently cross his "t"s. Ancestry have West Indies which is patently wrong! On balance, I would probably go for Westport.

I agree that Alice's surname is QUERK (and not QUECK as Ancestry claim!).

Sorry, not a lot of help this, is it?

Petra
