mrs Hatchard 18.8.1800 on mail coach from Shrewsbury to London / 20.11.1809 call on Hatchard

John Hatchard DNB 1756-1849 was said to be a Tory bookseller, though he voted Fox & Tooke in 1796 but then Gardner in 1802, Hood in 1806 and Romilly & Maxwell in 1818. He married 11.7.1790 Elizabeth dau of Thomas & Elizabeth Lambert. George & Thomas Hatchard were carpenters & chandlers of Castle Lane Westminster, Thomas voted Horne Tooke in 1790 & Hood in 1806 while George voted Hood in 1788, Fox & Gardner in 1796. Henry Hatchard, carpenter & umdertaker of…

28.11.1808 write to Hatchet Lane

Probably means to the Boinvilles, or possibly to the Newtons. Hatchet Lane runs northeast from near Bracknell towards Windsor. The Boinvilles are said to have lived at Bracknell but I'm not sure if their exact address is known.

21.3.1792 Hatchet at Holcroft's.

This is likely to have been Charles Hatchett 1765-1847 chemist and mineralogist who married Elizabeth daughter of John Collick a Westminster magistrate. Godwin met Collick at Shield's 27.11.1794, and Collick mentioned Shield, Crosdill and Clementi in his will (PCC 1807) and is mentioned as well as Crosdill in the will (PCC 1794) of Henry Waller (see 6.7.1792). Another possibility is that it was Horatio McGeorge, an eccentric actor known as Hatchet after one of his roles (Highfill, Burnim and Langhans)

call at Havel's 14.9.1802 (in Reading)

Will PCC 1813 Luke Havell drawingmaster, oilman & colourman Reading. In 1823 a Robert Havell was aquatinter at 79 Newman St, London (British Book Trades Index)

Hawes 1.11.1794 at Hardy's trial / miss Hawes's 31.3.1795 at Thelwal's.

Maybe William Hawes DNB 1736-1808 (will PCC 1809 sons Thomas, Benjamin). If the miss Hawes's were his daughters, they would have been Sarah born 1775 or Mary Ann born 1782 (so only 13), so more likely another sister Maria not mentioned in the DNB except under John Gurney who married her in 1797 (she was certainly of William Hawes' family as his address Spital Square was given on her marriege certificate, he moved address several times previously and her baptism must have been in some other parish about 1777).…

Robert son of John & Elise Hawes bapt 27.12.1748 Bury St Edmunds

The best source for his family was the will proved PCC 10.4.1801 of his aunt Unica Hawes of Botesdale, Suffolk from which we see he had many cousins, his father had died by 1784, his grandparents John & Ellen Hawes were buried in Rickinghall churchyard, his uncle Robert was an apothecary of Bury St Edmunds (whose will was proved PCC 1784).

Robert Hawes was apprenticed 21.10.1761 for 7 years with a premium of £25 to William Green stationer of Bury St Edmunds. From 1770 he was in partnership with his…

His father Rev William Hawkes's will PCC 1797. The Hawkes's at Gaskell's in 1835 may have been a connection of his, but the three entries at Elwes 1800, Lambert 1810 and Northcote…

18.4.1790 Hawkins at Paradise's.

John Sidney Hawkins DNB 1758-1842 son of Sir John Hawkins DNB 1714-89 who was certainly a friend of Paradise's (Shepperson) or John Hawkins DNB 1761-1841 whose Greek travels and Republican sympathies would also fit with Paradise's circle

Hey 4.2.1792 at Shields' with Gray, Perry & Holcroft / 24.8.1794 Hay at Gray's with Gordon & Holcroft / 14.12.96 Hay at House of Commons with Gordon & Perry / 7.1.1805 adv Hay & 2 at H Rowan's / 11.7.1813 miss Hay at Hume's

Likely Hey and Hay in the first three entries above were the same person because of similar company, and Godwin most often (and understandably) got spelling wrong on first meeting someone, so more likely Hay, and quite likely a journalist for Morning Chronicle (Perry & Gray's paper). The Hay at Rowan's in 1805 could have been Edward Hay…

Mary Hays' sister Sarah Hills has a person record on the GD website. Soeur should perhaps be added to her. perhaps to another sister like Joanna Dunkin, or Elizabeth Hays later Mrs Lanfear.
