The Ipswich Journal of 2.11.1805 and the Morning Chronicle of 18.1.1806 reported on accusations of paedophilia against him as a schoolmaster.

Edward Paul Pilcher 1763-1826 had married Mary Jane Godwin's sister Sophia in 1792. It was eight years after Godwin's second marriage that the Pilchers first visited the Godwins (according to the diary). The Pilcher children later became frequent callers on the Godwins.

Their children (first three all baptised together in 1796) were 1) Edward, who probably died young, as he was not mentioned in his father's will of 1826, nor apparently in Godwin's diary 2) Peter who married in 1826 Emma…

Pisani

Pisani 7.8.1802 at tea (& J Beccaria)

There were Florentine sculptors called Pisani, I found no evidence of them having visited England. Two Pisanis mentioned in Farington diary 1795 a Count Pisani foreign minister who attended the Royal Academy dinner that year (perhaps Almoro Pisani Nat Arch PRO 31/14/67) and a Pisani who was interpreter for the Turkish ambassador (perhaps Berto Pisani chief dragoman of British Embassy to Turkey in 1810 Nat Arch Fo 352),  Pisani was one of the richest Venetian families also a common Italian name meaning from Pisa
