Ardal cynnwys a strwythur

Natur a chynnwys

Journal of a tour in France and Switzerland, June-[September] 1833, made by Mrs C. Jones, lady's maid, apparently from north-east Wales, accompanying her employers, William Henry Fox Talbot of Lacock Abbey, Wiltshire, and his wife, Charlotte [Constance in Oxford Dictionary of National Biography WWW site] (née Munby), and Mademoiselle Amélina Petit de Billier (c. 1798-1876), family friend and former governess to William Talbot's half-sisters. Entries from 8 September, when she joined her new employer (see note under 544, below), a Miss York, in Geneva, until her return to England on 22 September, are in pencil, overwritten with transcripts of poetry; miscellaneous commonplace entries, 1833-c. 1858, were added by Mrs Jones both during and after the tour and later by other hands.
