   Most of them were framework knitters, quarrymen or coal miners.   
      
   One moved from being a coalminer in the Belpwer district in 1861 to   
   being a scavenger for the district council in Basford in   
   Nottinghamshire in 1881, and was back down the mine in 1891, but in   
   Nottinghamshire.
