Re: oh, and a corve (didn't notice at first) is a coal basket

a coal basket? vs a coal scuttle?

i like the old specific names for crafts too.
some are pretty simple, (glover!) others, a require a bit of thought--farrier and collier..
and there are different classes of work..
the collier (coal miner) vs the breaker--some one who works above ground breaking the coal into sized lumps-- (goose egg was one size as i recall.. but there were other sizes..(anyone?)

in textiles, there were the spinners (spinster when they worked from home)
weavers and fullers..

my other obsession
