This is a list of occupations from the 1891 London Census. "Knocker Up" and "Chimney Sweep" both appear.19 -
Thanks for the post. Does anyone have the list of possible answers to the occupation one?

The supersearch puzzle states: With one exception, all these quaintly named jobs that were declared in the London census of 1981, and their brief descriptions, appear in straight lines in all directions in the wordsearch grid. Find out which word or phrase is not in the grid and write that word on the entry. (It doesn't state it's not a Victorian job)
