I'm hoping ;) that this is the baptism of my 4x G grandfather Robert Jacobs. Can anyone read his father's occupation please.

I won't put what I think it might say before I've had your opinions.
Thanks.

Edit : Just realised this can't be my 4 x G grandfather as the date is too late :( - but I'd still like to know what the father's occupation is though. :)

Thank you both. That's what I decided it must say after puzzling over it for hours! :)

Surname looks like Jacobi, rather than Jacobs - perhaps a continental past?

I tend to agree - the curly bit goes right, not left.
