A woman's corset lays out on one of the bed's in the girl's bedroom of the Wylie House. Although museum curators cannot be positive this room was the girls bedroom they strongly believe it was because the room is larger and contains a wardrobe. Girl's room of that time period were often larger because women stayed at home with their parents until they were married and the wardrobe would have been used to store the layers that comprised their dresses.
