Question

If historians were to use the info in this list to gain a better understanding of life in the 19th century for women what would they be doing

Answer 1

(IDK What list you're referring too)

In the 19th century many women worked at home finishing shirts or shoes. Others made boxes or lace at home. In the Black Country in the West Midlands of England some women made chains in forges by heir homes. Married working class women often worked - they had to because many families were so poor they needed her earnings as well as her husband.
