Re: [LegacyUG] Occupation Description
I personally would use 'musician' as the occupation, and then give the details about playing the banjo.

Do I put, as an event, Occupation with played banjo as the description? Or have others used a different event/fact word for band members/musicians/etc.? Your thought would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [LegacyUG] Occupation Description
Wikipedia has an entry for Banjoists – also lists of famous banjo layers (and “celebrities” who also play/played the instrument). I.L.

Re: [LegacyUG] Occupation Description
Interesting word, and I needed to look it up in the OED. It could be used but it is 'a minor occupation' and originated in the middle 17th century. Regards Chris -- Original Message -- From: "E. J.
