The occupation of my ancestor William Nicholson on the 1841 Census is an abbreviation which I have not seen elsewhere. I've looked on other pages taken by the same enumerator and believe the abbreviation is "C l " (capital C, lower-case el).
Does anyone know what this means? L for labourer, probably, but C?
William is living in Ashby Street, Victoria Place, Toxteth Park, Liverpool in 1841. He's 30, married to Isabella, and has four children: William, Jane, Arabella and Isaac.
