The 1906 census for a man in Lyngby, Kobenhavn, Denmark, lists his occupation has "postexpedien & bagholder i Sparekasse." The handwriting isn't the best, but I'm pretty sure that's what it says. What does this mean? We know he was a director of a savings bank. Thank you kindly, Linda Vixie Colorado Springs, CO
