ETA: Her friend is Elizabeth. They represent the richer & poorer parts of Williamsburg. I guess more little girls wanted to be Elizabeth than Felicity. For comparison's sake:

Neither Felicity nor Elizabeth are poor. Felicity is solidly middle-class. Her dad is a merchant. Elizabeth's family might have a little more money, but they both go to "school"/lessons at the same place, so there can't be that much of a difference. Or maybe there isn't anything "higher class" for the Coles to spend on? Then again, even the poorest American Girls (like Addy or Kit) somehow have a huge line of clothing and accessories to buy.
Maybe you are thinking of Nellie. She's the poor servant of Samantha's neighbors.
I doubt Felicity is going because she wasn't selling. It has to be just because she's one of the older dolls. Or maybe to make her stuff more valuable. I am devastated.
