Interested to find a number of my ancestors listed as 'Gardeners'. Was this a Trade, with an Apprenticeship ? Not quite sure what they would have done and how they would have set about getting started. In the FOD, would it have been Horticulture ? Full-scale market gardening ? Veg gardening ?
Help appreciated !
Yours are described as Gardeners / Domestic servants, so I suspect they are tending gardens - keeping things tidy/ tending the veg plot etc
