Hi,

this is my first posting to this list.

Am seeking information about the occupation of FUR MACHINIST as given as
mothers occupation on a birth certificate.

This is in Aston, Birmingham UK, in the 1940s.

Would there be an apprentice register?.

Would such work be done as a cottage industry at home, or in a workshop.

Would it be a family related industry??

Any information at all would be great.

Cheers,
Brenda
