employers.....

Post by thomsos » Mon Mar 20, 2006 2:18 pm

Can any one tell me if there is any way to find out where a person worked or who they worked for if they were a domestic servant

I suppose that depends if they were "living in" servants or not. However, frequently you'll find in the Census, as part of a "Family Group" someone whose "relationship to Head" is noted as Domestic Servant so you can consider the head of the family to be the employer.

Thank you,
I don't think they were live in.
