The purpose of the study was to determine which women were mentioned most frequently in general United States music education history books and to examine the contexts in which the authors discussed women's work. A survey of individuals interested in music education history was then conducted to determine whether they would recognize the names of these women and whether they would consider them important to the music education field. An examination of five histories revealed 334 citations for 164 women. Only 11 women's names were mentioned five or more times. A questionnaire was sent to 39 respondents, who were invited to rate each of the 11 names for recognition of the woman's name and her work in music education. Agreement regarding name recognition was found to exist between histories and the 28 respondents who returned the questionnaire.

Real Product

Women engaged primarily in the provision of domestic services for family members make important contributions to total output. This article provides estimates of the size and sectoral allocation of the nonmarket household work force in the United States between 1800 and 1860. Those estimates are then used as a basis for several alternative imputations of the value of these women's work, which modify the historical picture of economic growth over this period.
