Abstract: The very garments that in some places are given them (children), and their maintenance in all of them by charity, are the constant badges and proofs of their dependence and poverty; and should therefore teach them humility and their parents thankfulness. (Samuel Harmar, 1642, cited in Pinchebeck & Hewitt, 1969) 1The research for this paper was conducted with the assistance of a QUT Meritorious Grant. This enabled us to employ Nicole Matthews whose impeccable research skills made possible the recovery from the more inaccessible lanes of the information highway out‐of‐the‐way clues to the nature of uniform practice in the past. We are grateful to the referees for their useful suggestions.
