      Can't be certain this is the same person, but a Florence Coker, same age and single, born in London, is a nurse at Barnet, London. This is only a couple of miles from Hornsey where she was in service 10 years early.

      In 1911, she is now a matron in Liverpool taking care of orphans.

      In 1914, there is another possible record for her emigrating to Australia. She is described as a matron.

      However, no record can be found of her dying in Australia. There is a possible 1932 death in Chelmsford, Essex, England, where others in her family also saw out their days.
