Hi, I have an ancestor who is shown as a Clerk CC in Kingston upon Hull in the 1891 census. The male line of my family were primarily involved in the Railway, so could someone clarify for me what the CC would stand for. Would it have been a job on the Railway? I know that nowadays it would be County Council, but did such a title exist at this time. Also, another member of the same household is shows as Railway Fireman or Forman and the letters RBM or RBH is written above. Any ideas? Would be grateful. Pam |

If you find the word 'clerk' in mid 17th century/mid 18th it means a vicar/minister etc. |
