SUMMARY:Spotlight on the Servants
DESCRIPTION:Spotlight on the Servants is a new exhibition looking at life below stairs  – or in Traquair’s case\, above stairs as the servants were installed in one of the wings of the house on the upper floor.  \nDrawn from the archives at Traquair there are some very early records dating back to the 1600’s when payment could be part paid in kind which included beer and cash wages could be months or even years later! There were also remarkable individuals over the centuries who served the family for most of their lives and their loyalty was unwavering.  \nWe have also recorded the names of all the servants who appear in the ten-yearly census returns from 1841 to 1921. If you think a family member may have worked at Traquair during these years you can start your research here. We are currently compiling a database of all the servants who worked here from the early 18th century to the mid-19th century – hundreds of them! Coming soon… \nExhibition will be in the High Gallery (3rd floor) from Saturday 26th September – Saturday 31st October * \nFree entry for Season Pass holders or included in your grounds ticket – please ask for a voucher on arrival at Traquair. Buy Day Tickets and Passes  \n*Traquair House & Grounds closed Fridays September and October.

SUMMARY:18th century Cures and Remedies - An Archive Afternoon at Traquair
DESCRIPTION:A New Archives Workshop on 18th century Cures and Remedies \nThursday 19th November\, 2pm-4pm \nFollowing our highly successful workshops on food and drink consumed in Traquair House in the 18th century\, we are now inviting you along to discover the weird and wonderful medicines family members were using to cure their various ailments. Join Catherine Maxwell Stuart\, 21st Lady of Traquair\, and Margaret Fox\, Traquair’s archivist\, to hear their short presentation and then immerse yourself in the documents to uncover for yourself medicinal preparations which have thankfully long fallen out of use – such as earthworms washed in white wine alive\, the white of peacocks’ dung and the liver of a hare! You can then mull over your findings with fellow participants and enjoy a cup of tea and shortbread to round off your afternoon. \nThis event will be held in the Dining Room (on the ground floor). \nTickets: £25 – advance booking essential as numbers are limited. \n\nRead about previous Archive Afternoons here
