George Canning DNB 1770-1827 would have been 18 years old and just finished his first year at Christ Church, Oxford when Godwin saw him. The Canning in the 1796 list for 1787 may have been him or possibly his uncle Stratford Canning (QV* in Society for Constitutional Information dataset) member of SCI who died in May 1787. Perhaps Godwin was introduced to George Canning, who already enjoyed some…

mrs Cannon 15.3.1795 at King's / 22.3.1795 there / 14.11.1804 call on mrs Cannons / Cannon calls 24.1.1815
On 16.1.1791 Cannon contributed £50 (one of the largest donations) to the Socy of Const Info's subscription to relieve the French. Since Carbine also gave £50 these may have been joke names ( a rather dangerous political joke). A Mrs Cannon of Little Chelsea kept a seminary for young ladies (post-1800) (DNB J G H Jay 1770-1849). Edward Bacon Cannon attorney of Leicester Pl Soho voted Paull 1806 Burdett 1818. Cannons was a surname though far less frequent than Cannon, e.g. John…

31.3.1795 Casey at King's (= Carey see original) /16.9.1795 Cary at John King's / 23.11.1795 House of Commons with Cary
The entries at King's were surely Captain John Carey later Viscount Falkland, (as all Carey entries at King's have been coded in GD website), and that at the House of Commons very likely him too, Godwin having seen Carey at King's only two days before on 21.11.1795. The topic of debate in the House on 23.11.1795 was the so called "two bills", for the security of the King, and against seditious meetings, and the many petitions for and against them.
WILLIAM PAULET CAREY 1759-1839
CURRENT TEXT "became an engraver."
SUGGESTED CHANGE <In London in 1784 he worked for *John Raphael Smith*, producing two stipple engravings after *Thomas Rowlandson*.>
CURRENT TEXT "after getting into trouble with this society in 1793, Carey fled to Philadelphia,"
SUGGESTED CHANGE <In 1794 in order to avoid prosecution himself for publishing 'Address to the volunteers' by *William Drennan* he became a witness for the prosecution in Drennan's trial for sedition, and subsequently fled to Philadelphia,>

Crabb Robinson's exclamation marks were probably aimed at Mrs Montagu's thinking it such a sin. Thomas Carlyle (DNB 1795-1881) was a friend of Mrs Montagu's, he referred to her as "the noble lady"

A common name with few entries in Godwin's diary. The 1809 and 1810 entries were probably one person, but the 1802 and 1806 entries could easily have been different people (or not). At Moore's in 1802 with Moore's friend Woolriche who was a surgeon, so maybe a surgeon or maybe an Irish connection. See Hughes, Maria for connection of Curran and Waring.…
