This is given as an occupation in the 1911 census for a femail head of household in York, does anyone know what type of work this involved? Google hasn't found anything relevant. |

Just checked that now, she tried to correct the first word by writing over it so it isn't very legible but in the next column its states that she was a railway worker so my guess is that it should read seamstress coach, that is, she was stitching railway coach seats at York railway workshops. |
