Summary:

Earthenware Manufacturer ~ Employing 131 Males and 104 Females: John Marshall


Although the size of the workforce is recorded in John Marshall's census entry, the census appears to tell a different story and I
have been unable to find similar figures. Including John, and counting only those entries in the census that specifically mention the
pottery industry in the occupation …

A total of 148 people were employed in the pottery, 98 men and 50 women.
