	Could some kind person, with better eyes, take a quick look at the 1871 census for John Middleton b 1811 in hodnet Shropshire please i can't make out his occupation?? On 1861 Census it looks like "Pauper" Head John Middleton b 1811 Hodnet Shropshire Wife Sarah Middleton b 1811 Hodnet Shropshire Son Edward Middleton b 1843 Hodnet Shropshire Thanks Pamx

	In 1871 his occupation looks like Sawyer and I think its the same in 1861
	Researching: Anstee/Bucks; Russell/London; Durose; Pease/North Yorks; Kelly/IoM

	It seems like that could be it Lindy Lou. Thanks so much, was thinking he done great with his time from being a pauper to a Lawyer... never mind A Sawyer he was! Thanks again Pamx
