Groom isn’t husband in this reference
George Playforth, Anne Lister’s groom wasn’t her husband but her man servant. A male servant that would have been charge of her luggage and horses. As a single woman of substance would’ve had at least 2, a female maidservant to help her dress and take care of her clothing and a male servant, called a groom, to take care of everything else. Anne would’ve not had sexual relationships with her servants, because of the class differences. She’s most likely attracted to women of her own class. In those days, women of Anne’s class wouldn’t mix with the serving class
