[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 160367, member: 59"]The point was to dress in 1776 costume. The older woman looks okay for Quaker indoor dress; the younger woman should have on the same kind of cap, though, I would think. As for the young man, I tend to agree that his clothes are right for 1776, but not really specific for a Quaker. I suspect this means they lived in an area where Quakers were rare. Quakers weren't really all that different from non-Quakers, except religiously. Not like the Amish and Mennonite sects.[/QUOTE]
