I'm fascinated to know - can't find any reference to it all.

Are you sure that is what ot says (assuming that this is the one you have seen on the 1901 census).


Can you post details of where it can be seen on the census so I can have a look?

To CheekyChops and Ethel


I looked in 1901 Census and wanting info. about James Gall. The last entry was for a James Gall aged 79 born in Norfolk and his profession was listed as Woman Destroyer retired. Fortunately not the one I was looking for !

Sounds like another name for a husband to me!


Sorry, don't know.


But it sure sounds like the job for me.

The Lady Killer is a bloke who pulls lots of women - prsume its another version of the theme
More to the point: How do I go about hiring one ?
