    3. In the Drew County Census of 1910, James L. Boyd, age 15, and Edgar H. Boyd, age 14, both are shown as having the occupation of "Doffer" in a cotton mill. What is a "Doffer?" I have never heard the term before. Can anyone tell me what these two boys were doing? Thank you for helping me. Jo Anna Dale <jdale@swbewll.net>
