Anyone who lived anywhere in the Southern (and even in the Northern, I 
dare say) states had it tough back then.  You aren't even accounting for 
the ridiculous amount of layered clothing they wore.  People didn't run 
around wearing shorts and t-shirts back then.  Even casual dress 
required multiple layers of clothing.  Uncomfortable?  Had to be.
