Is it possible to find out if Mary Mounce was a housemaid at Downes House in about 1770?
Thank you

Point taken - but I am in New Zealand. :)

Being realistic - I would very much doubt that staff records from almost 250yrs ago would still be available

You could try emailing the Devon FHS to see if they have any info on availibility of records for that period
