I've heard good things about Robert Land 
http://www.robertlandhistoricshoes.com/servlet/StoreFront from the 1860s 
American Civil War crowd. From the little bit of research I've done 1840s 
shoes (at least for women, I haven't looked at mens shoes) were not hugely 
different in style to the 1860s so you might try asking him if he would do 
something a little earlier.
