Dear Elizabeth,
The recent series of books by Gil Dye might be helpful to you - they cover
the Elizabethan and Stuart periods. There is also the wonderful book "In
Fine Style". I reviewed them on Arachne, but you might like to see the
reviews as they appeared in the New England Lace

I have recently received the transcript of an English will from 1630.
Elizabeth Lougher was a widow, whose husband,
Robert, died in 1624. They had at least
one daughter and five grandchildren.
