William Shepherd DNB 1768-1847 merchant, friend of Jeremiah Joyce, based in LIverpool, married Frances dau of Robert Nicholson, Liverpool. He (and his family) could be most of the above entries but Godwin's use of Liverpool 1809-13 and of the initial W in 1823 suggest there may have been more than one Shepherd in his diary. On the other hand there is only miss Shepherd at Nicholson's in 1805 between three entries associated with Joyce in 1803 & 1804 and the first use of Liverpool in 1807. Samuel Shepherd DNB 1760-1840 lawyer and friend of Erskine's possible but no strong reason for identification. 1809 Shephard (Bristol) was probably William Sheppard bookseller Corn-st 1800 to 1824 (bbti), so possibly also 12.7.1809 when Godwin wrote to several booksellers outside London, and certainly all the Sheppard entries above
