Trade would be a good possibility too... Thanks for the idea! Written by JanELT (10/11/2008 3:04 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Respectable but 'inferior birth' ?, penned by Mandy N

I can see how Mrs Elliot could have been wealthy that way. I'm not sure what her social class was. I don't fully comprehend JA's L&T. Is it possible to be of a low social standing and yet at the same time be very wealthy?
