 there, but would love to have (or put together) some kind of semi-solid 
 list. >>
The book I mentioned in another thread, The Great Household in Late Medeival 
England, by C. M. Woolgar, goes into some detail on this subject, including 
the numbers of servants employed in different households, and what their 
wages were.
