Mudd House Victorian Christmas

[RJNorton]

Perhaps they had a live-in nanny? But where was the nanny's room? Did she get rousted out of the front bedroom (which is normally the master bedroom) when Booth and Herold arrived? Did she share the children's bedroom with them? The only other room upstairs was supposedly Dr. Mudd's medical office. Was there a connecting door through the children's room to a room that was over today's gift shop?

In Nettie Mudd's book there is a statement by her mother.

Sarah Frances Mudd wrote, "My husband did not find the boot, and I sent Martha, the housegirl, to get it for him."

Who was Martha?
