This is the only time a "maid" is mentioned is in SD, saying that they were so glad when the GA left that the "housemaid" was dancing. When this event was recalled in PM, Nancy said it was Cook that did the dancing, with no mention of any maid. As to her being "live-in" or come from her home every day, there is no awareness of that distinction made.

I think that from the context of Nancy's telegraph replying to the GA in PM ("Not alone. Cook here.") we may safely infer that Beckfoot had accommodations available for Cook, whether she used them full-time or not.
