 Arctic Team Seeks 1840s Explorer's Lost Ships
May 19, 1845: Sir John Franklin sails from Greenhithe, England, with two ships, a crew of 129 men, and three years' provisions.
That's the thinking behind the latest hunt for the remains of the lost voyage of Sir John Franklin, whose two ships, the Erebus and the Terror, disappeared during a quest to find a northern sea route to Asia.
The team hopes the device can detect iron in the remains of an 1840s shipwreck in the region.

 English Society in the 1840s
In the 1840s, a tough-minded reformer called Edwin Chadwick dramatized the plight of the poor by publication of a large number of official reports on the state of public health in the unsanitary cities and especially in London.
The reform measures that were finally passed in the 1840s, such as the Factory Acts and the repeal of the Corn Laws, were little more than palliatives.
Great debates over the plight of the poor and other social issues were beginning to be the focus of much political discussion during the 1840s.

 Pioneer Photography in Bolivia: Directory of Daguerreotypists & Photographers, 1840s-1930s
A native of Potosí, Frías had a long career in Bolivian politics from the 1820s, when he was private secretary to president Antonio José de Sucre, through the 1870s, when he served twice as president.
Daguerre himself is said to have provided the young Tomás Frías, who later became president, with a daguerreotype outfit.
Amateur daguerreotypists were on the scene by the late 1840s, and professional photography studios had opened in Sucre, Cochabamba, and La Paz by the early 1850s.

 Sherry Olson Ethnic Partition of the Work Forcein 1840s Montréal Labour/Le Travail, 53 The History Cooperative
During the 1840s, the Irish Catholic proprietor of a boardinghouse recorded in his daybook the hiring of a new Liza or Maggie on average every four weeks.
Decisions of the 1840s established sectarian management of asylums, hospitals, and correctional institutions, and ensured for 150 years to come confessionalism in the schools of Quebec.
Change in the ethclass structure was gradual because upward mobility was essentially intergenerational, and, judging from a small longitudinal sample, the labourer remained a labourer to life's end.

The number of women involved in dressmaking alone in the early 1840s was estimated to be 15,000 (House of Commons, Reports from Commissioners: Children's Employment, Trade and Manufactures, Sessional Papers XIV (1843) 555).
Jameson noted that if one considers the widows or daughters of "attorneys and apothecaries, tradesmen and shopkeepers, banker's clerks &c, in this class more than two-thirds of the women are now obliged to earn their own bread" ("Condition of the Women and the Female Children," The Athenaeum, 16 (March 18, 1843), 258).

Also during the financially troubled 1840s, the title to Holl's grant of 2,000 acres was formally bestowed on his daughter, Mary Ann.
At different times for the next several decades, H G Smith or his brother, Thomas, with whom he was in business, held title to Macquoid's grant while letting it for the purpose of timber extraction.
The recording of the judgment is not at all clear, but it seems that Stockdale received a fine of £80, held in case he was required to go for trial at the Quarter Sessions in Sydney [

 BBC - History - The Irish Famine
But in the Irish famine of the late 1840s, successive blasts of potato blight - or to give it its proper name, the fungus Phytophthora infestans - robbed more than one-third of the population of their usual means of subsistence for four or five years in a row.
A million people are said to have died of hunger in Ireland in the late 1840s, on the doorstep of the world's richest nation.
Comparison with other modern and contemporary famines establishes beyond any doubt that the Irish famine of the late 1840s, which killed nearly one-eighth of the entire population, was proportionally much more destructive of human life than the vast majority of famines in modern times.

 Horace Greeley, Editor of the New York Tribune, Including His Lifelong Ties to the Universalist Church
But although he employed Karl Marx as a European correspondent in the 1850s, Greeley exchanged most of his high-minded utopian schemes for down-and-dirty party politics in the contentious decade leading up to the Civil War.
His articles, collected in An Overland Journey, evaluate the agricultural and industrial potential of the territories he passed through, and criticize the rough-and-tumble, disorganized and inefficient process of settlement.
During the 1840s Greeley had written numerous articles promoting a voluntary system of agricultural collectives he called "association," based on the writings of French socialist Charles Fourier.

 1840s Famine in Ireland
While most famines are due to extreme weather conditions or the effects of war and politics, this was not the case in the Irish Famine of the mid 1840s.
The reason for the famine was because there is no system of social welfare within a monarchy.
His conclusion, as a means of reducing the poverty levels, was to eat the children.

Two museum experts' opinion, the exquisite multicolored floral brocade on moire champagne colored silk faille fabric that makes up this gown is from the mid-1700's.
The other expert believes that the one-piece dress was redesigned in the 1840's to what you see now (I tend toward that assessment as I have not seen any other 1700 gowns of this shape).
