Thread: Help with occupation.

I have just received a copy of a Death Certificate but cannot read the occupation.

It looks like "a Coo?p of a Steam Vessel". Does anyone have any ideas?



Thanks.



Val.

I THINK its to maintain and work the boiler on ship

Thanks so much Chris, I have been studying the word and have decided that it must be "Cook" as his occupation on his marriage certificate is Baker.

Sorry to have wasted your time.

Glad you did i googled it , how far out was i lol it also said 2 proffession but dont think so Baker different to engine worker lol

I must admit that Google never entered my mind. My daughter is always telling me "Google is your friend".

Lol im still learning , but have had loads of help from people on site , also grandchildren lol

Hi Val,



There is also a lot of information on AA. Just add occupation into the search engine on the links and tips forum.



You could also attach the certificate to this thread so that others can see if they can work it out.

Morning starlight, thanks for your reply. After studying the word for ages I came to the conclusion it must be " cook". To be quite honest I don't know how to put the certificate on here but will get my daughter to do so when she is here and then you can give me an opinion. So sorry if I have wasted anyone's time.

Thanks for those kind words , looks as if my daughter is not coming round to-day so will get her to put the certificate on for me to-morrow.
