Hello Lister, I am trying to find information regarding my great-grandfather James GARDINER b c1826 to James Gardiner (Quarrier) and Anne SCOTT, probably in Creiff. On the 1841 census it says he is an Apprentice Shoemaker - can anyone tell me where I may find information about apprenticeships please? Before becoming a farmer in Victoria in the late 1850s he was a shoemaker in Victoria too. Any information regarding his parents would also be gratefully accepted. TIA, Lorraine (Dodemaide) Standfield, Victoria, Australia.
