Submitted by edpope on

27.2.1796 theatre with mrs R & C(ooper) / 10.3.1796 call on M Rn (not available) / 2.6.1800 dine at M Robinson's, call on Northcote & Fenwick with MR / 14.6.1800 theatre with M, MR, MER &c / 15.6.1800 MR calls (not in) / 29.10.1800 Stratford MRn

These entries were all clearly Mary Robinson, the first two are uncoded in GD website, the last 4 coded to Maria Reveley who was by then Maria Gisborne. On 2.6.1800 the calls followed on from dining at hers, on 14.6.1800 her daughter (MER) was present. The next one was the following day, and the last one has been transcribed in the GD website as MRw, a usage Godwin had nowhere else in the diary, closer inspection shows it to have been Rn short for Robinson. The first entry above, 27.2.1796 had Cooper who was present with Godwin & mrs Robinson several times shortly before and after that date
