Adverts for ancestors' professions



Who wouldn't be thrilled to add this informative and decorative
advertisement to their family history publication? Mr Geo Willson was a man of many parts, it seems: cabinet maker, upholsterer, importer, coffin maker ('and all the fittings') and undertaker. The advert appeared in the Natal Almanac of 1880.
