One wonders how, in a census for Darwen, Ancestry can be mistranscribe the kids pob. I think the answer is the same as for Elizabeth J Holland's a=2/9 - practice, practice, practice.

a heald knitter is an operator of a textile machine which produced a jersey type of fabric rather than a woven fabric. So possibly a 'heald drawer' is something similar to a cotton drawer which I think was aomeone who 'drew up' the threads for a loom.
