Trimmers
This page updated September 3, 2005
A trimmer was the terminology used by these men in giving their occupations. Now I know that during a certain time in history a "trimmer" was a person who would trim the wicks of the lamps used to light the town streets. However, I am also finding out that these people also used the term to describe a "carriage" trimmer, which would be painting and a totally different type of work. If a researcher gets a clearer clarification on anyone listed below, please submit it.
