Thanks everyone

Linnen Draper seems to be the best bet.

She's a draper, for sure. So I'll make do with that.

Best wishes
Jean

Hi Meg
Thanks for that link,
I would tend to go with Linener…. I’m sure that the enumerator would have not spelt Linen with the double “n”

Jim
researching
McIntyre, Menzies, Cowley, Pearson, Copland, McCammond, Forbes, Edgar etc. in Scotland
Skinner in Northumberland
