My grand father was a sportsman who hunted and fished. At work he was a foreman. At home he had premiums he had received from salesmen as if he worked in purchasing. He also purchased things for himself based on what he saw as prizes on TV. These were things like Polaroid cameras or portable radios or even a small personal refrigerator. When he died the obiturary said he was a mechanic. It seems the state had the last say. I saw an exhibit at the Custer Museum in Monroe, Michigan last week that featured artifacts of the Knights of St. Pierre. One of the items was a tooled ornate belt with large letters on the back saying "Foreman." My grand father was an Elk. I also saw a fireman's hat from the turn of the century with the badge rank as "Secretary' rather than "Chief." Without research the characters are watery and dusty.
