Nancy Meyer–Regency Researcher

1815-regency-proposal-woodcut

I have just received a wonderful link from the Jane Austen Centre in Bath, for an extensive site for research on Jane Austen. Nancy Meyer has been collecting information on Jane Austen for years, and this information is free to access on her website:

Nancy Meyer – Regency Researcher

 

On her site, you can also ask her questions on a variety of topics that you would like to learn more about, such as:

Was it legal for an Earl to have a fox hunting party on his own estate in June?

How soon could a Regency widow remarry?

Did Mothers wear mourning clothes for stillborn infants?
