JoAnn Peterson, owner of Laughing Moon Mercantile Patterns, has a new store in Old Sacramento, Calif. JoAnn caters to Gold Rush/Civil War reenactors. She has lots of great shoes/boots in her store, one or two of which are 1830s-40s appropriate. I don't know where she gets her shoes, but check out

The last time I tried to get a catalog from Amazon Dry Goods, they sent me a 3 year old catalog and wouldn't give me my money back when i called to say that I already had that catalog. Maybe they've finally updated their catalog and improved their customer service. YMMV, LynnD On Mon, May 12,

I also have a pair of shoes by Sarah Juniper (1570s), and I can't say enough good things about them. She will make them as accurate as you wish, and you have never worn anything so comfortable. Two caveats: as far as I know, she does not have email, and she does not take credit cards.
