	The Myers Family History
		A boy could become a cutler if he was the son of a freeman of the Cutlers' Co, or if he served an apprenticeship of at least seven years with a master (until he was 21 years old).
		Each cutler was issued with a mark to identify their work which enabled the wardens and searchers to trace and fine a cutler for inferior workmanship.
		The Cutlers' Co. revenue increased and they could afford to be generous to good causes in Sheffield (eg General Infirmary), to the poor of the parish and to other public projects (£500 to the new Town Hall).
