  • Jane Wayneman
rdfs:comment
  • Jane Wayneman was a housekeeper in the household of Samuel Pepys. There is some confusion about her identity, as all information about her comes from Pepys' Diary, and he was not always diligent about documenting his staff. Moreover, the Pepys household had at least three servants named Jane, and it may be that Wayneman was not Jane's actual surname. It appears that Wayneman was employed by Pepys from January to June, 1660, when she became lame and was replaced by her own brother. She appears to have returned to the household in 1662.
