This is interesting. I found it when i was trying to find an example of lace made by French Napoleonic PoWs (do you know of any might be around?)
http://unpublishedwriterblog.wordpress.com/2012/08/14/jane-austens-aunt-almos t-another-criminal-statistic/ But perhaps you all know about this story? The literature also says they (the PoWs) made lace bobbins... do you know of any (please do not tell me about the Nelson bobbin, that is what I am researching) Long trail this bobbin has led me to.
