Regency Advertisements: Elizabeth Eagleton, Lady Tea and Spice Dealer

By | | ,

This ad appeared in the October 1806 edition of La Belle Assemblee:

Oh, how I would love to know more about Elizabeth and her life.  I found a couple of notices related to the dissolution of a partnership between her and another grocer, but alas the sources were dry as to the life and times of Ms. Eagleton.
