The Different Families (Part 1 - Existing/Research)

I now need to start catogrizing what families/groups I want to create. A good place to start is to look at exisiting families/titles, and to alter them from there. Below is a list of familes found in different versions of the game, underlined families featured in the deck I played with from the 70's, and italics will be families jobs/classes from the original created game:

Florist
Baker
Brewer
Undertaker
Teacher
Carpenter
Butcher
Policeman
Crook
Swabhand
Dyer
Doctor
Farmer
Vet
Greengrocer
Grocer
First Mate
Captain
Fireman
Pilot
Milkman
Plumber
Painter
First Class Passenger
Fisherman
Chimney Sweep
Tailor
Dentist
Chef
Gardener
Lawyer
Author

Builder

Also through the Wikipedia for 'happy families', I found this gem! Dartmouth has it's own set of cards created back in 1987, and apparently some of the families of the professions which have incredibly appropriate names are still going strong today.
