Yarley calls 20.5.1798

A one-off call but a rare name, though it could have been a spelling of Yardley. See work notes below

Yarnolds 13.2.1805 at R Taylor

I found no connection between Richard Taylor DNB 1781-1858 printer and any Yarnolds, which was a name from Worcestershire and the Welsh borders while Taylor's family was from Norwich, and no Yarnolds in British Book Trades Index. Some London Yarnolds in work notes below

Yates 4.9.1798 at Joseph Johnson's / 4.9.1808 at Bonnycastle's / 29.12.1808 Hilton, Hommey & misses Bonnycastle & Yeates call / 27.4.1813 Yates adv at theatre / 2.8.1816 mrs Yates at Hume's / 21.4.1830 Yates (at Cooke's?) / 8.3.1834 mrs Yates at Gaskel's / 11.4.1835 again

John Yates DNB 1755-1826 married Elizabeth Bostock (nee Ashton) 1749-1819, their son Joseph Brookes Yates DNB 1780-1855. Unitarian family based in Liverpool / Rev Richard Yates DNB 1769-1834 or his brother Rev William Yates 1774-1830 schoolmaster of Shacklewell. I'm not inclined to think any of these were…

The GD website has coded the Yates entries above to a person record but it is blank and states No appearances in diary found. Probably one of Hannah Godwin's millinery assistants, see my entry for Godwin, Hannah

Holdens 1811 Eliz. Yates dressmaker 38 King-st…

call on Yearsley (not in) 12.3.1798 (in Bristol)

Ann Yearsley DNB 1753-1806

17.12.1810 T(homas) T(urner) sups. (adv. Sir James Yeo)

James Lucas Yeo DNB 1782-1818 naval officer (knighted 21.6.1810, set sail again Feb 1811). What Godwin meant by an adv in brackets after a full stop at the end of a day's entry is anybody's guess. Maybe Sir James came up in conversation, paraded past the window or knocked on the wrong door by accident?

12.5.1788 see Yoel (at or after Robinson's). Yoel Yoell watchmaker and finisher, Duke St, Aldgate took apprentices in 1785 and 1792 and at Portsea, Hants in 1796. There was also a Messrs Yuell & Co tailors of Bloomsbury in 1788 and a Yuel, Esq of Hart St, Bloomsbury who subscribed to Bell's Shakspere in 1788

I can't see now why I suggested Thomas Young DNB 1773 - 1829 for the above four entries, except that he was a surgeon who would have known Carlisle, and an interesting thinker who might have been at Johnson's. (Oct 1794 to Edinburgh, toured Scotland summer 1795, to Gottingen 1795 dissertation Gottingen July 1796, resided 6 terms at Cambridge 1797-9, "appears to have spent as much time as possible in London")
