1. Washing attires and household linen: early laundry ways
and instruments
Once upon a time a metal washboard & bar of hard soap with a tub of hot water was a new-fangled
way of tackling laundry, though today it is a common picture of "old-fashioned" laundering. What went
previous? How did people wash clothes without the factory-made equipment & cleansing products of
the 19th century?
Rivers, rocks, washing bats, boards
Washing clothes in the river is still the ordinary
way of doing laundry in lots of less-developed
parts of the human race. Even in wealthy parts
of the world shore washing went on well in to
the 19th century, or longer in country areas -
even when the stream was ice-covered. Stains
might be taken care of at home before being
taken to the stream. You could take exceptional
tools with you to the river to facilitate the effort:
like a washing bat or a board to scrub on.
Washing bats & beetles were also useful for
laundering elsewhere, & have been used for
hundreds of years, sometimes for smoothing
dry cloth.
Lye, bucking, soaking
Soaking laundry in lye, cold or hot, was a vital method of tackling white and off-white fabric. It was
called bucking, and planed to whiten as well as cleanse. Coloured fabrics were fewer normal than
today, for basic items like sheets and shirts. Ashes and urine were the mainly essential substances
for incorporating nice "lye". As well as helping to take out stains and promote a white colour, these
operate as nice de-greasing agents in laundry service.

2. Drying, bleaching
The Grand Wash or the Great Wash were names for
the uneven "spring cleaning" of laundry. Immersing in
lye & bucking in huge wooden bucking tubs were alike
to processes used in textile manufacturing. So were
the next stage - drying & bleaching stuffs & fabrics in
the open air. Sunlight helped bleach off-white cloth
while drying it. Occasionally stuff was sprinkled at
intervals with water and/or a dash of lye to extend the
process & boost bleaching.

Richmond, Virginia in the 1770s:
Customers took their laundry to
washerwomen's homes & returned
there to collect tidy clothes....
...Much washing took place in
public. …. Washerwomen
"boyle[d]...the cloaths with soap"
…. Laundresses then gathered
near the marketplace home where
Shockoe Creek approached the
James River. They "washed in the
stream" & then allowed clothes to
dry on a nearby pasture...
