It's quite a bit older than that. 1800s, I believe? A "spinster" was a women who got a job spinning/weaving fabric, which was one of the few jobs women were allowed at the time, and they were paid for it! Very well, iirc.

So a woman earning her own income and able to support herself, not being required to marry in order to live comfortably.
