  	Age: 14y
  	A "printfield worker" was a general term for someone who worked in one of the printfields, in this case in the Vale of Leven, near Dumbarton. The print and dyeworks produced printed cloth - curtains, chair coverings, covers, even handkerchiefs - much of it for export. In Victorian times most of the Vale of Leven workforce were employed at the bleaching and printing works. Your great grandfather's daughter would be one of the many females employed as helping hands in the factories. If she lived in Dumbarton, the chances are she walked to work every day. The nearest bleachworks was at Dalquhurn, Renton; the nearest printworks was at Cordale, Renton; the former about one and a half miles from Dumbarton, and the latter a bit over two miles away.
