Commentary

John's occupation is written as three lines of text all compressed into the single box for Rank, Profession or Occupation provided on the form. As written it apeears in the following sequence
University of Cambridge Occupier of 80 Acres of
Land — employing 3 Lab(ourers)
Curate of Farley Chamberlayne [unreadable]
But this third line is written in a larger hand, suggesting that it more logically reads
Curate of Farley Chamberlayne [unreadable]
University of Cambridge Occupier of 80 Acres of
Land — employing 3 Lab(ourers)
George Wilton's place of birth is clearly written Michelmarsh (sic) rather than Michelmersh
