The occupation was blacksmith and as was the custom way back when, they got their names ffom their occupations. So I'm thinking Smith. Very nice anvil and tools. And as usual underrated so far.

Mark, the word you're looking for is farrier, and sorry, it's the wrong shape for a horseshoe.

Just getting around to solving. Could tell right away it was Smith. Very clear illustration, Brian.

I'm getting told that there are multiple solutions. But I don't see how I can modify the solution I found to make it the "correct" solution.

Well, I just turned some pixels on and off and now it seems ok. Can bad internet connections cause weird glitches like this?

Some people have had issues with some browsers that don't work quite as they should with this site. It's something you might look into.
