Footnotes
Together with her 'beloved friend', Martha Goldsworthy (d.1816), Jane Gomm was a sub-governess to the daughters of George III. The present lot was gifted to Gomm by the King. She entered Royal service in 1786 and her responsibilities were most closely associated with Princesses Mary and Sophia (M. A. Beatty, The English Royal Family of America, from Jamestown to the American Revolution, 2003, p.220).
