I'm still waiting on transfer of library books that might help with some of my period questions, so in the mean time here are a couple for this well-informed group (or atleast you make up good answers.)
In the late 18th century/early 19th, how did the gentry handle nursing of babies? Did they have wet nurses in their homes, mothers nursed own babies, used a kind of early-style formula?
Thanks. EL
