The Financial and Administrative Roles of Women in London's Court Orphans, 1660-1720
Supervisor: Natasha Glaisyer
My research interests are in the social and economic history of England in the early modern period, particularly women's engagement with finance, administration and institutions. My PhD thesis focuses on the City of London's Court of Orphans and emphasises the importance of women's financial and administrative roles in the Court’s proceedings during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries.
