Transcribed as Rosler Gardener ...

I read it as Rosler Grinder but what is a 'Rosler'?

 

[solidrock2]

German (mainly Rösler): occupational name for a rose grower

Thanks Keith.

I think now it is Rooler = Roller Grinder

http://doot.spub.co.uk/code.php?value=364

grinder, card; card room grinder, cylinder grinder ; roller grinder

 

[emeltee]

Certainly more likely to have a roller grinder in a cooton mill, rather than a rose gardener.

Thanks.

I don't remember which site it was but while at the library I saw it transcribed as Rosler Gardener ...
