    • The account of the disbursements of the Overseers of the Poor of Buckland Monachorum for the year 1765 includes the following entry:
      "Richard Pike Jutsham for 2 Yds. & ½
      of Cloth for A Cot of Briches at 2sh - 6d p[er] yd - 0 6 3
      for 3 yd & ½ of strips for A vest at 1s 6d p[er] yd - 1 10½

      for A pare of Hose - 0 0 5
      for A Hat - 0 1 3
      for A Pare of Indenters for Jutsham - 0 4 0
      Pd to Tho: Witeborn for his Aprintice - 3 0 0
      for A pare of Shoes - 0 3 0

      [total] 4-2-2"

      A seperate entry in the accounts the same year reads "for Attening to Tavistock to bind apprintice 0 1 6". Pauper apprenticeships were agreed before a J.P. Usually the child was bound to the master until they were 21, and the master agreed to teach them a trade and to provide clothing, board and lodging etc. Most commonly boys were apprenticed to learn farm work, and became ag labs, girls to learn housework. Presumably Thomas Whitbourn was a tailor, as later records shows Richard to have been one. A skilled trade, this would seem to have been preferable to being an ag lab, at least in Richard's time.

    • Shows Richard Pike Jetsam as sojourner of Milton Abbot parish, in contrast to the marriage part of the register entry which shows him as of Buckland Monachorum. He may have stayed in the parish so the banns only needed to be called there and not in both churches - a way of saving money.
