The 1840s is kind of late for what I'm doing. I need that baggy seat, to cover my anatomy and to 'read' early, and I need the resultant trousers to stay up without suspenders.

Simplicity 4923 is fall-front with a baggy seat and does not use suspenders. It is taken from 'Cut of Men's Clothes' diagram XXII. The book dates it ~1760-65, but it does meet the design requirements you have.
