Elinor Sneshell
English barber surgeon
Elinor Sneshell (fl. 1593) was an English barber-surgeon, active during the reign of Elizabeth I of England.
In the 1593 Returns of Strangers in the Metropolis, she was listed as a widow originating from Valenciennes who had been resident in London for 26 years.[1] Alongside Elizabeth Moulthorne of Antwerp, Sneshell was one of only two known female barber-surgeons who practised during this period.[2]
