Question

What info might included in a journal entry written by a midwife during the Middle Ages, including social class, clothing, housing, church affiliation etc. Also need some kind of physical evidence to submit. Thanks

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Here are some sites on the Middle Ages and midwife:

For the physical evidence, you could bring herbs or ointment. After you read more about the midwife, you will have other ideas as well.

Some of the midwives were overly enthusiastic and would pull the babies, losing arms, etc.

Here are some additional sites.
