The mrs Carter who died 19.2.1806 was Elizabeth Carter DNB 1717-1806 and perhaps too respectable a "bluestocking" to have been a guest at John King's

John Edward Carter gent of Leicester was a party to the marriage settlement of Augustus Butler (qv) to miss Danvers, his will PCC 1813. Thomas Leveson Prescott…

Major John Cartwright original member 1780 of Society for Constitutional Information

John Cartwright DNB 1740-1820. Appeared four times in Godwin Diary as Major Cartwright

rev. Cartwright 20.9.1801 at H Tooke's

Quite likely Edmund Cartwright DNB 1743-1823, not a great radical hImself, but the brother of Major John Cartwright DNB 1740-1824 whom Godwin had met at H Tooke's in 1799

see Karre, Sarah

Raised a Catholic he converted to the established chuech on his marriage to Sarah Pierson 1.12.1785. He lived at Castle Browne from 1788 and in 1794 offered to act as bondsman for Archibald Hamilton Rowan DNB 1751-1834 when Rowan was imprisoned for sedition. Browne was a captain in the yeoman cavalry and his commission was…

3.2.1796  Geo Cavendish &c. Looking at the original I think this says "l Geo Cavendish &c" and is meant to be additional to the Holcrofts and Mrs Cowley who Godwin saw at the theatre

George Henry Cavendish d.1834, after the death of George Augustus Cavendish in 1794 known as Lord George Cavendish, afterwards 1st Earl of Burlington. Whig M P (see History of Parliament)

see Selinas

see Acerbi

31.5.1796 chaise with mrs Chamb -  (from Edgware to London)

Godwin wrote to the end of the page, it looks like an e or an r after the Chamb. Could well have meant Chambre (a not too rare surname) or else Chambers

Chambers 11.7.1797 at Joseph Johnson's

4.3.1806 Chamillys at Rowan's (with a party of 30 or more)

No clear identification. A seigneur de Chamilly was valet de chambre to Louis XVI of France and was guillotined in 1794, but his son lived to 1827 (Hoefer, Nouvelle Biographie). Holden's 1811 directory listed a John Chamilly, surgeon, Ireland.  Peter Francis Venault de Chamilly was a coal merchant of Somerset Street, Marylebone who owned a distillery at Paddington Green, and went bankrupt (Morn Post 25.3.1808, Morn Chron 13.6.1808).  Dorcas de Chamilly was buried at St Marylebone 4.8.1818 age 53. The name Venault de…

30.7.1810 write to Charnley / 4.1.1811 again / 11.1.1811 again / 15.7.1811 again

Probably Elizabeth Charnley bookseller of Newcastle upon Tyne from 1803 to 1814 widow of William Charnley (bbti)

Charpentier calls 4.7.1802

I suspect this call may have had some connection with Godwin & Richard Phillips' calls of two days before (see Miller). Benjamin Charpentier was a gilder of Titchfield St who took an apprentice in 1795 and advertised in the Morning Chronicle 19.8.1807 for some paintings by Russell lost in transit. There was also a William Charpentier jeweller of Soho in 1796 who died about 1800. PCC wills Gideon Ernest Charpentier of St Pancras 1797, Ann Charpentier of St James Piccadilly 1805
