After her husband's death, Lindsey moved to Maine and has not remarried.

14. LONDON 1817. While economic historians of medieval and early modern England have placed considerable emphasis on the importance of London, this has not generally been true of historians of the industrial revolution. When London has been discussed it has sometimes been portrayed as a backward economic area characterised by sweated labor and as a drag on the rest of the economy.
