    3. Hi Lorne. Just one quick thought - have you gone through the rest of that particular returns to find any other instances of this 'V&T'? If there are others, comparison of the people they're assigned to might show up a common theme - especially if it does mean 'visitor & traveller.' If you could quote the piece and folio numbers some listers might be able to study the entry for themselves? Apols if you already have; I might have missed the start of this thread.
