Once into their website I typed in his name which gave a little info :- Isaac Coates age 18, Crime - Theft : Location Ashton. Crime Date 1831. Sentence 1mHLW (One month hard labour and whipping). Q.S. 26/2/221 : Year 1832 : Term Epiphany : Case No.94 : Court - Quarter Sessions. It still doesn't state his occupation. Perhaps you could try the same search with his sister.
