His parents were dead by 1787 and he didn't marry till 1813 so the plural at Tooke's 16.6.1799 may include a brother, perhaps Thomas Hugh Clifford his older brother


Clifton

Clifton 23.4.1801 at Goldsmith's

 


Cline, Margaret

'Mrs Cline to Medical Society' 18.1.1794

Presumably Margaret Webb who on 11.2.1775 at Christ Church Spitalfields married Henry Cline DNB 1750-1827 surgeon

 


Cline, Miss

miss Cline 3.8.1803 at Joyce's (&miss Harts) / 20.7.1804 miss Cline (& miss Harts) invited

See Henry Cline DNB 1750-1827 surgeon. He married Margaret Webb in 1775. They had three daughters Margaret bapt 1782 (who perhaps died young), Frances Ann bapt 1777 who married Huntley Bacon in 1797 at St Andrew Undershaft and Amelia bapt 1784 who didn't marry till 5.2.1831 at St Geo Bloomsbury to Thomas Smith Barwell. This was probably Amelia aged 19. Henry Cline's sister Winifred had married Edward Horler surgeon in 1770 and his sister Frances had married Joseph Green 6.2.1790 St…


Cloncurry

ami de Cloncurry 12.10.1799 at Curran's

Cloncurry was Valentine Brown Lawless DNB 1773-1853 who was confined in the Tower of London on suspicion of treason and had recently succeeded to the title of Baron Cloncurry. Godwin's reason for not naming his friend might have been security rather than forgetting


Close, John

call on Close 4.5.1788 / 16.9.1788 again

John Close was a broker at addresses near Tower Dock from 1761 to 1791. He was mentioned in some of Hannah Godwin's letters to Godwin (Abinger c.1 f32-3, f90-1) and was clearly known to their mother Ann Godwin. Godwin called on him again on 16.9.1788.
 


Cloud, R

1.4.1809 R Cloud sups

Only mention in Godwin's diary. Evening after Holcroft's funeral. A rare name so the person below is a possible, would have been aged 16, no obvious connection to Godwin.

Thomas Cloud will PCC 1809 smith, farrier and coachmaster of Hammersmith, wife Mary, sons James, George Richard, Richard, Henry, William & Edward. In 1874 Richard Henry Cloud took administration of the effects (under £20) of his father Richard Cloud of Hammersmith Gate, Fulham who died 14.1.1859, and then of the unadministered effects (under £200) of his grandfather Thomas Cloud who…

mrs Clutterbuck 23.5.1799 calls / 6.7.1827 Clutterbuck at Uwins's / 5.10.1830 again / 1.11.1832 Clutterbuck at theatre

Robert Clutterbuck DNB 1772-1831 was a pupil of James Barry 1794-8, married 1798 Marianne Capper 1774-1856, their children were born at Cathays near Cardiff in October 1798 and March 1800. Robert Clutterbuck was a friend of Thomas Deacon (see Deacon) whom Godwin had visited two weeks before his call from Mrs Clutterbuck in 1799. Robert Clutterbuck went to Harrow School in 1780 and was followed there by his younger brothers Thomas in 1785 and Peter in 1791.


Cobb

1.4.1807 call on Philips (adv. Cobb) / 10.8.1807 Cobb sends / 20.2.1809 call on Cobb / 18.11.1815 call on Cobb, cheese-monger / 29.10.1828 sup at Hodget's, w. Rhodes Cobb

Perhaps the Cobb at Philips' was James Cobb (DNB 1756-1818) playwright and clerk at India House (Holdens 1811 53 Russell-sq), and if so perhaps the next two entries as well or see below. Cobb cheese-monger could have been Thomas Cobb grocer of Newgate-st Old Bailey 3.12.1800, grocer 30 Newgate-st & 87 Leather-lane Kent's directory 1815. Rhodes Cobb in 1828 was probably Timothy Rhodes Cobb banker of Banbury 1797…

all above entries except the 1799 entry and the Cobbet, mercer in 1813 have been coded to William Cobbett on the GD website, probably correctly. I haven't identified a mercer called Cobbett, and Godwin called on Cobbet only two days after the mercer called, so…

Cogan

Cogan 3.7.1800 at Colles's / 28.9.1810 at Johnson's / 25.1.1818 seek Cogan

The Cogan at Johnson's 1810 is likely to have been Thomas Cogan DNB 1736-1818 or his half-brother Eliezer Cogan DNB 1762-1855. The seek Cogan of 1818 was just a week before Thomas Cogan died, perhaps…
