Dear Friends, I have my own copy of the 1851 census for the Isle of Wight, Hampshire and there are hundreds of lace-makers listed there, many of whom are men. Unfortunately, I think you'll find that they were all making machine -made lace. David in Ballarat
Oh don't miss the list of Bedfordshire lacemakers too. http://www.lacefairy.com/Lace/LaceArt/20bucks.htm Lori Howe http://lace.lacefairy.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
