There is a Glove Stitcher on page 11 of the same district - see attached

Adding comparison of Stitcher and Winder for consideration

Thank you so much for the comparison, matthewj64.  This is amazing!!  For me, at least, this gives a conclusion that it is definitely Glove Winder.

Thank you again   8)

Just keep in mind that if it does say Glove Winder that, as others have said, this was not an occupation, so it may be a mistake made by the enumerator and should be Stitcher or something else - and I wouldn't say for certain that it says Glove, its a hard one to be 100% sure on either way
