2 E. H. HUNT, "Wages", LANGTON AND MORRIS, Atlas of Industrialized Britain, pp 62-3, 68. The rate
of pay varied widely with location; the eleven counties with the highest rates of pay ranged from 7s.
9d. to 9s. 9d. per week. Wages for the fourteen-lowest-paying counties ranged from 5s. 10d. to 6s.

3 MUI AND MUI, Shops and Shopkeeping, pp.112-4. All examples in this table from Mui and Mui, pp.
111-4, are taken from their excerpts of tax assessment records. Some shops were too small, and
their owners too poor, to warrant an assessment, and larger shopkeepers' income may not have been
reported accurately. Also, Mui and Mui obviously could not reproduce every entry in the assessment
records. Therefore, the figures given in the table provide a sample or range of samples of income
and should not be presumed to denote an absolute maximum or minimum.

1800; Colquhoun gives an average of £3,000 at the end of the century
