2.10.1807 E T en bas
The only other uses of E T in Godwin's diary were twice in 1830 where it was clearly associated with R T which certainly meant Richard Taylor (DNB 1781-1858). R, E & A Taylor had breakfasted with Godwin on 26.9.1807, six days before the above entry. So I suggest this was Edward Taylor (DNB 1784-1863), Richard Taylor's younger brother, who has a person record on the GD website
mrs Eagle 9.8.1800 at Lady Moira's
Simon Eagle of Gerrardstown co. Dublin = May 1790 Arabella dau of late Rev Patrick Kenny, prebend of Clonmethan, co. Dublin / Dublin Trades 1797 Edward Eagle apothecary 44 Bolton St
Eale 14.11.1799 at theatre
A rare name, nearest relevant reference I found was Joseph Eale, linen draper, Strand 1785. In the GD website the event tag for the theatre that night is blank. The plays were Fair Penitent by Nicholas Rowe and Turnpike Gate by Thomas Knight
call on EAO 27.3.1805 / 9.5.1805 call on IO / 13.12.1809 call on Equitable (Planta, &c)
Probably Equitable Assurance Office, Bridge St, Blackfriars. See my entry for Cooper. The IO could have stood for Invalid Office, but perhaps it was just insurance office, and the same one.
Eardley 2.3.1803 at Lady Valentia's. In Godwin's 1796 list for 1803
Sampson Eardley formerly Gideon 1745-1824 Hist of Parl (MP for Wallingford 1796-1802). His father Samson Gideon DNB 1699-1762 (where his date of death is wrongly given 1821), his sons Sampson Eardley 1770-1824 Alum Ox died unmarried but a son born 1819, William Eardley 1775-1805 Lt Col 82nd foot 1795. GD website has coded this entry to a person record but it gives no info on the person
17.6.1807 explanation, S S; adv. T(homas) T(urner) from Earle / 13.7.1811 Earle adv. at theatre
Possibly the attorney's clerk James Henry Earle (c.1787-1856) son of the surgeon Sir James Earle (DNB 1755-1816). He later took a law degree at Cambridge and got ordained in the Church of England. He was articled to Washington Coates of Lincolns Inn for 5 years on 22.1.1805 for a substantial premium of 300 guineas. Possibly also his father or one of his uncles or brothers but he seems to have been the only Earle in the legal profession at that time, where Thomas Turner was most likely to…

Ede 9.5.1790 at John Paradise's / 21.3.1805 adv at Philips'
The Ede at publisher Richard Phillips DNB 1767-1840 might have been (though it seems unlikely) James Ede whose The Gold and Silversmith's Calculator was published in 1806, though no copies of the first edition in Bodleian or British Library to check publcation details from. His next work in 1808 was printed for J M Richardson. His address was 12 King St Clerkenwell in 1809 (Sun Fire). There was a Francis Ede senior, merchant at 40 Friday St in Sun Fire 1812, a Francis Ede merchant at 9 East Place, Lambeth in Sun Fire 1813 (…

12.10.1810 Edwards (Oswestry) calls
Likely to have been William Edwards bookseller of Oswestry from 1792 to 1812 (bbti). But Edwards was a common name in Oswestry, including the vicar Rev Turner Edwards, a goldsmith, a mercer and three innkeepers in Holdens directory 1811.
22.5.1807 call on Edwards, engr
Most likely engr was short for engraver (though engineer is possible). The only Edwards engraver I could find active in 1807 was William Camden Edwards (DNB 1777-1855) but he was apparently living in Bungay, Suffolk in 1807 and for most of his life. There was a Humphrey Edwards engineer at 3 Mill-st, Lambeth-walk in 1815 P.O. directory. Richard Edwards printer was at Red Lion-ct, Fleet-st from 1804 and later moved to 6 Crane-ct, Fleet-st till his death in 1829. But probably none of these

see Mr Edwards (5) 22.12.1790 / 9.1.1791 call on Edwards / 4.3.1791 Mr Edwards calls / 2.3.1792 Edwards at B Hollis'
Hollis Edwards (will PCC 1807) was the nephew of Timothy Hollis who had just died leaving a legacy to James Barry, and was executor and one of the main beneficiaries of his will. Godwin was probably calling on Barry's behalf, or perhaps curious to see if there was anything for him as well. Edwards' will PCC 1807 left all to Dr Abraham Wilkinson of Enfield. It is possible but doesn't seem likely that he was one or some of the later Edwards's in Godwin's diary between…
