Born Jane Pardoe in Lye, Stourbridge in 1834 she married fellow nail maker, Joseph Freeman in 1853 and continued to live in the town. Nail making was a punishing way to make a living, particularly for women. Pregnancy, childbirth, keeping a house and raising children while undertaking exhausting, physical work for very poor pay meant female nailers’ lives could be brutally hard. Add to this the reality of living with a mental health condition and we can start to imagine the challenges she and those around her faced. lader, ladler (lead extraction), Pattison hand (lead extraction) stirs up molten lead in large pot, in which Pattison process of desilverisation is conducted, and as it cools, removes in perforated ladle, solid crystals of pure lead, which sink to bottom of pot; when critical temperature is reached, ladles remaining liquid into another pot, and by repeating process increases concentration of silver in lead. cutter, bloomToday, thankfully, the way we view and treat mental health is changing and we are now becoming more aware of the issues and challenges surrounding it. punches head on bolts or rivets; does minor repairs to machine and instructs header q.v. setter, mould (steel) is in charge of operations of setting and stripping casting pits, i.e. placing moulds on pits ready for casting and removing them afterwards; may also assist pitside craneman ( 950) q.v. to sling ingots and moulds; usually done by pitman q.v. setter, mould (typefounding) wheel maker laces a few spokes through flanges of hub; attaches them to rim of wheel and tightens them up until hub is approximately in centre; places remaining spokes in position; roughly adjusts wheel, sets it on spindle in a jig and trues it up. wheel builder (perambulators)
