Can anyone of the list tell me what the following occupations are? COLLIER Thank You, Oneida USA
Collier, per OxfordDictionary, "Coal Miner/Coal Ship or sailor on this." Britannica gives these, also "A maker of charcoal". I have also seen "Collier" used (? correctly) as the owner of a coal mine. hth Cheers, Bob in Australia. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe & Nita Bynum" <prunepicker@arn.net> To: <ENG-LANCS-YORKS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, March 29, 2003 12:44 PM Subject: [ENG-LANCS-YORKS] occupation > Can anyone of the list tell me what the following occupations are? > COLLIER > > Thank You, > Oneida USA > > > ==== ENG-LANCS-YORKS Mailing List ==== > To contact the ENG-LANCS-YORKS list administrator, send mail to > ENG-LANCS-YORKS-admin@rootsweb.com. >
