English Coal Trimmers 1894

Brian's Father was a Coal Trimmer at "The Northmet Power Station."
Brimsdown, Enfield, Middlesex, England Aged 23

He was lured back from Lucknow India (an English peace keeping Regiment)
By his family who said they had a brilliant job for him.....
His Brother Arthur was all ready working as a Coal Trimmer...
Which has something to do with shoveling the coal flat.
He never forgave the family He liked it in India.
They wanted his pay packet.....
