A little bit of English history re renting property. Those people in  
Scotland, Ireland, England and wales who rented property were not unstable  people or 
people who were always "shifting" around  but people who had NO  option but 
to rent. Pre the second World War in these countries most  property was rented 
as few people could afford to buy their own houses. It  is only since the 
Second World War that more people are buying rather  than renting their 
properties. Agricultural Labourers were the salt of the earth  and very stolid, living 
in the tied agricultural cottages that were attached to  the farms. Many 
families lived in these cottages in the villages and hamlets for  hundreds of years. 
Many moved away from the country into the towns at the time  of the 
Industrial Revolution in the 1700's only to escape one hovel for another  in the 
various cotton/woolen mill towns. a good understanding of British history  will help 
you all to understand your roots much better.
