Hi Brad...Yes, I am well aware that Ag Lab covers an extremely large area of skills BUT I've input all the people of that surname, in that town, on all the censuses and can find none of them described as anything near being a "School Master" which is what this man says at his son's wedding in 1854. I feel sure the vicar must have been "mut an jeff" and got it wrong on his son's Marriage Certificate.
