Turner, Mr

Macbeth, mr Turner 15.12.1798 / 23.12.1804 adv Wakes & McBeth Turner at dinner. In Godwin's extension of the 1796 list for 1804

Turton

12.5.1809 dine at Johnson's, w. Dr Turton / 14.12.1809 call on Theobald, Wordsworth & Turton, w. L(ouisa) H(olcrof)t & M(ary) J(ane)

The Turton at Johnson's was wrongly transcribed as Tuston on GD website. It was very likely William Turton DNB 1762-1835 conchologist. In 1805 Joseph Johnson published an edition of Oliver Goldsmith's History of the Earth and Animated Nature indexed by Dr Turton, and in 1807 Lackington published Dr Turton's translation of Linnaeus. In 1806 Dr Turton offered a gold and a silver medal for the best poetical effusions on Lord Nelson. Turton was…

All the above missed in GD website. Also Tuthill46 in Godwin's 1796 list transcription at end of 1795 but not there in original

Twiss, Francis

In Godwin's 1796 list for 1794 F Twiss (crossed out), transcribed in GD website as T Twiss and not coded to his person record. See Twiss, Richard for why most of the entries coded to Francis in GD website in fact belong to his brother Richard.


Twiss, Horace

HCR diary 10.12.1820 "Hazlitt, Mrs Horace Twiss & Barry Cornwall were at Montague's and I had a very pleasant lounge there till past 12 o'clock"

                    18.12.1820 at Aders "Mrs Longdale was there without her husband - a beautiful woman and very agreeable - I overheard Mrs Montague speaking disrespectfully of her to Twiss but this is by no means conclusive"

see Villeneuve. Robert Tyler of St James Piccy jeweller = 26.6.1771 St Marylebone Mary Ann Villeneuve sp otp by lic wit Geo Villeneuve. Since Mrs Tyler called on Godwin out of the blue three weeks after Godwin met Villeneuves at James Perry's the above marriage may be relevant

 


Tyrannos

talk with Holcroft of (tyrants). I know no Greek but I think this is tyrannos, tyrants

unnumbered division

Although filed among other LCS division lists in Nat Arch this was possibly not a division of LCS but a democrat club associated with the City Artillery Company. See Thale p168 for spy Metcalfe's conversation with William Worship on 19.5.1794, three days after Worship joined this list. Those members whose professions I identified are all of a somewhat higher social standing than most LCS members. There is a separate entry for each name below (titled by surname)

James Lestourgeon   2, Artillery St, Bishopsgate  22.1.1794   (wine merchant)

Upshaw

Upshaw calls 14.8.1803

Only appeared once in Godwin's diary and didn't get to see Godwin then. Morning Post 14.8.1803 Cork and Upshaw, Americans prosecuted for a challenge to a duel to Mr Askew (the son of Sir Edward Askew) after he nudged Upshaw off a crowded bench in the lecture room of St Thomas' Hospital. Website upshawfamilyjournal.com is a good source for Upshaws in Virginia and nearby states. This looks likely to have been Dr William Upshaw born 1782 of Richmond Virginia who became surgeon to 5th Regiment of Infantry and was involved in duels in 1805 and 1810 and died 31.8.…
