Category Lace Bobbin Makers should be clarified.

Category: England, Lace Bobbin Makers has been used for one profile of a machinist making bobbins for a lace factory, and for three profiles of women making pillow lace, using bobbins.

These are different occupations, I would suggest that a new category Lace Makers might be needed, and the three profiles moved over to it.

It seems the new category should be “bobbin lace makers” within a category for “lace makers.”

Thanks, I'll look for lace makers, however someone needs to re-categorise those other two profiles into "Lace Makers"

There is a Lace Manufacturer category, but no Lace maker, one a factory hand, the other a pieceworker working at home.  Should there not be two categories for these two occupations.?
