Occupation:
http://www.genealogie.com/v2/genealogie-en-ligne/ancien-metier.asp?id_metier=68
(a page on old French occupations).

Journalier, manouvrier, brassier are apparently the same occupation, just called differently in different areas.
It appears that it can cover various things, depending on locality. It seems to suggest a "daily" worker - if in a rural area, someone who helped out at the harvest and otherwise took odd jobs here and there working for farmers, perhaps also having a small amount of land to work themselves, or another secondary job such as weaving to cover the winter months. If in a town, someone who took jobs by the day as and when they came up.

Jeanne married Claude Francois Bichet 27 Jun 1809, Ronchamp, Haute-Saone, Franche-Comte, France. Claude (son of Jacques Bichet and Marie Ang Poivey) was born 5 Sep 1786, Ronchamp, Haute-Saone, Franche-Comte, France; was christened 5 Sep 1786, Ronchamp, Haute-Saone, Franche-Comte, France; died 15 Jan 1859, LeRay, Jefferson, New York; was buried Jan 1859, LeRay, Jefferson, New York.

Aurelia/Amelia
Note cited as Amelia in transcription of Teare's rememberances - the handwritten manifest could be interpreted either way.
Arrived New York c. 14 June 1826 (ref #338), 216 tons burthen,William McTaggart Master
William Tier [Tear], 40, Fisherman, (b. c.1783); wife Joaney Gawne Tear,40; children Judy (16), William (13), John(12), Thomas(7), Margaret(3) [and James (7 weeks) - not on manifest] + father John Tear, (65)
John Gawn [Gawne] , 34, fisherman, (first cousin of Joney Gawne), wife Ann Gawne, 30 and children: John, 9; Eliza, 7; Daniel, 4. [according to Thomas Tear there were 4 children - possibly a babe in arms was not included as for James Tear above ?]
Peter Howland, 25, Tailor, is also shown as from Isle of Man but this could be an error in filling out the manifest as the next passenger is from Ireland.
See account in chap 14/17 of Manx, Isle of Man History of Manx People who came to America Lake County Genealogical Society (ed L McNaughton) 1991
Thomas Tear quoted William Tear, jnr, as 15 but did say that at that time the Manx did not pay great attention to birthdates, and that Joaney Gawne came from Jurby; the IGI lists a marriage William Tear and Joney Gawne at Andreas 24 Mar 1808; their eldest son William was christened on 28 March 1813 at Andreas.
This William Tear is the author of two letters that helped spark the migration - see letter of Nov 18th 1826 and that of 25th December 1826 .
The Gawnes are I think John Gawne and Ann Sansbury, married 30 March 1815 at Kk Christ Rushen where son John was christened 10 Jan 1816.

Amelia, built 1826, brig, 1840 sold to Jameson & Co, Kirkcaldy. 200 tons
Source: http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/lines/bibby.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An account of what it was like aboard the Amelia. Taken from:
http://www.isle-of-man.com/manxnotebook/famhist/genealgy/voyages.htm

The account left by Thomas Tear is probably much more typical of the type of conditions encountered by the the 'middle class' Manx emigrants of the 1820's and 1830's.
We were finally put on board a small brig, if I remember rightly, of 200 tons, but seems wrong, to me, as she had on 200 passengers, mostly Irish [ see Act of 1819 which limited passengers 2 per 5 ton burthen]. Her name was Amelia of Liverpool, at the helm was, Captain Tagert. They had no such accommodations, as they advertised. We occupied what was called the second cabin, with some English people, and a few better class Irish, on the opposite side of the cabin. But It was not separated from the steerage, as I think it was called, by any door, which was on the same deck, and just forward of us, and was filled with Irish. It was separated from the cabin by a rough board partition, with cracks that the children could peek through.
The passenger quarters had three rows of berths all around, and there were two low benches, which was all the furniture there was in our part. There were two hatches over the passengers, affording all the light and ventilation that passengers had, and if It was rough, these were partly closed. There was a coal fire, in a grate on deck for the passengers to cook by. One man died on the passage, but to me, the wonder, is that half of them were not dead. The scent down there in that dirty, ill-ventilated hole, was anything but sweet. Mother was sick all the way, also Mrs. Gawne, but the rest, stood it well. The burden of cooking fell on my oldest sister, but she seemed to benefit by it. The passengers carried and cooked their own provisions, and as the fire would not accommodate them all at once. This made considerable dissatisfaction, eating was done, without setting of tables, and just as you could catch it.

The 1840 census also reveals that three females were present in the household. One was between the ages of 50 to 59. This would most likely be his first wife, Jeanne Marie. This assumption is made because his second wife Susan appears in the household in the 1850 census.
