Appendix 22: Multiple occupations
This appendix lists combinations of male occupations noted in the Study Area.
Some occupations are very closely associated such as plumbers, glaziers and painters
or carpenters and joiners, others are less obvious combinations. Farming and
labouring, which went hand in hand with many occupations, are not included here.
Domestic servants, soldiers and gentlemen are also excluded from the list. There has
been no attempt to quantify the frequency with which a certain combination occurs,
though some are very frequent and others are rare or occur only once.
The occupations in bold type are shown below in my groupings (as discussed
in Appendix 2). It will be seen that many combinations of occupations are from
within the grouping, but there are also many examples of combinations of quite
different trades.
