Request for help with occupation
Hello, I'm looking for help translating the occupations given for Cornelius Nolting in these 1855 and 1864 census records from Emden, Hanover. I believe he was a tinsmith or sheet metal worker. I have also attached the full document pages. Thank you!

In 1864 it is definitely Schmiedemeister = master smith.
1855 is a bit peculiar - but a few lines up he also lists a "Smidt": the writer seems to object to the "ch" in what should be "Sch" - with that in mind I would also read Schmiedemeister in 1855.

Hello @Jennifer Chapman_5,
In the second image I read: Schmiedemeister = master blacksmith.
In the first image I read: Smiedemeister. It is strange that the "ch" after the initial "S" is missing but I would still think that this would translate as: master blacksmith.
