Born (presumably) and lived in Childwall. Apprenticed in Liverpool while staying with her Sister's family there.

Can grind lenses for all sorts of things - spyglasses, glasses, cameras, lorgnettes, secret spyglasses, goggles, telescopes, microscopes, watch faces, etc.

There is no major difference in principle between a lens used for a still camera, a video camera, a telescope, a microscope, or other apparatus, but the detailed design and construction are different. A lens may be permanently fixed to a camera, or it may be interchangeable with lenses of different focal lengths, apertures, and other properties.
