trades of bygone times by dave collings 18 June 2003whilst tracing some old relatives came across a fishmongers wife whose occupation was noted as a STONER ? any ideas2 replies Re: trades of bygone times by Beverley Scott 4 August 2003Dave, I have consulted my dictionary of old trades etc. and the site detailed below, and apart from the obvious connection to stone working (not very likely ?), the nearest is perhaps a mis-transcription of STOWYER – someone who stowed or packed things away, such as nets on fishing boats.http://rmhh.co.uk/occup/index.html Re: trades of bygone times by stephanie 10 December 2007My mother`s family were Stoners in Brighton -although her g.g. grandparents were Jewellers – Adolphus & Antoinette Stoner. Her father was Adrian Lionel Wilfred Stoner (Leo) who married Ellen Rosina Harriet Mowbray in 1920C I don`t know if there is any link with your stoners!
