Other than my 'northern' Yorkshire Vineys. it would appear that most are from the south near Sussex. <br /><br />I'm afraid that I don't KNOW what a cotton waster spinner is but my first guess would just be a cotton spinner but with 'waste' products. I've done a little google search and it doesn't seem like I'm too far off:<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_mule : Condenser spinning or cotton waste spinning is akin to spinning wool<br /><br />http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/Cotton+Spinning : Condenser spinning is used to produce thick yarn from low grades of cotton and from cotton waste. The yarn obtained is thicker, looser, fluffier, and less uniform than yarn produced by card spinning. <br /><br />Would love to read your blog if you would like to link it?<br /><br />My week 2 is now up: http://abranchtoofar.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/robert-bob-alfred-gennoe-52-ancestors-2.html<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11981959641057434001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2352311165501144976.post-81017609734252852532015-01-11T10:51:21.772-08:002015-01-11T10:51:21.772-08:00Hi Sue

I'm sure there are plenty around that have however and can help me if I get lost (I hope!). <br /><br />Great blog; will enjoy your next episodes!<br />My week 2 is now up: http://abranchtoofar.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/robert-bob-alfred-gennoe-52-ancestors-2.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11981959641057434001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2352311165501144976.post-64735192168077389262015-01-08T14:48:59.099-08:002015-01-08T14:48:59.099-08:00I have some "Viney's" as in-laws on ...I have some "Viney's" as in-laws on my family tree... they were from England & then moved to Canada. The one who married into my family came down to the U.S. I unfortunately don't know where they were from in England.<br /><br />This might be a crazy question, but do you happen to know what a 'cotton waste spinner" &/or a "waste dealer" were/are? They were listed as occupations in the mid-1800's with my English family. Not sure if that's an answer for only someone in the industry, but thought I'd ask!Dana Leedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09387705697369311607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2352311165501144976.post-55002372818459033412015-01-08T11:15:47.595-08:002015-01-08T11:15:47.595-08:00Penny, it seems you have a good start here with Wi...Penny, it seems you have a good start here with William and some leads to the questions you pose concerning the rest of his family. Sometimes it can be a challenge in the 'Agriculture' occupation when so many just say 'farmer'. I get that often in my Georgia US research. Fortunately, most of them stayed close together in one area of the state and their lands were well documented from Revolutionary War Land Grants. <br /><br />Visiting from 52 Ancestors Weeks recap post.
