Does anyone know of any quotes or pictorial sources for what house maids or a 
ladies' maid would be wearing in the 1830s-40s?  I have been asked to make 
servants' dress of this date for historical interpretation, and am trying to 
find a source to replicate which will challenge the black gown/white apron 
look, which our visitors seem to associate with them.

Thanks
