Did your ancestor work in a post office? Mine was a "postal runner" which means she was what we now call a letter carrier. The British Postal Museum & Archives has launched a new website where you can search information on your Postie ancestors.
http://postalheritage.org.uk/
The area you want to search is at the top called "Collections and Catalogue"
Here on the right hand side of the screen you will find a list to search. Particular areas of interest for ancestor records are: Notable Individuals, Appointment Records, Pensions & Gratuities, and Financial Records.
Happy Searching!
