	He was a Bailiff for H Chawner esq - who was employing 5 farm labourers and 5 boys, and a landed proprietor of 517 acres. Did you look at the IMAGE? Have you asked before about these people? FMP alerts me to having accessed the record on a previous occasion

	The FMP transcription is fairly accurate……and is on your other thread dated September
