HCR diary 8.6.1826 at Aders "Beuthe, a finance minister, who has the air of a superior man - Schenkel the architect to the King of Prussia - also apparently a very superior man and a Col. Dunkelman -insignificant"

In Schinkel's English Journey ed. Bindman and Riemann, Schinkel referred often to Count Dancklemann, who was travelling with him and Beuth. In Glasgow they also met a Herr Dancklemann. Strangely Bindman and Riemann seem to have omitted any identifying note on Dancklemann in their copious and useful notes. It was probably Heinrich Wilhelm August Alexander, Graf von…

Dann, William Moord

SWEDENBORGIANS: Baptised at New Jerusalem Chapel 23.10.1791 William Moord Dann born 21.5.1757 of Thomas & Dorcas

The only clues I have found so far to this person were that a Dorcas Dan was buried 1783 at Hurstmonceux, Sussex and a Thomas Dann was buried there 1790. Another Dorcas Dann was born there in 1851 and died in America in 1945

Dargle & Scalp

13.7.1800 dine at la. Mountcashel's with C(urran) (Dargle & Scalp) / 14.7.1800 Dargle & Water-fall

Dargle is the river that flows to the sea at Bray south of Dublin, and Scalp the name of a hill near that river and the village of Enniskerry, or that is as much sense as I could get out of Google maps
