Carter, Thomas

Thomas Carter one of the additional signatories of the 1789 Swedenborgian conference (not in the printed list of 7.12.1788) who, like the poet William Blake and his wife and Dorothy Gott, appeared in no other Swedenborgian records. Really too common a name for me to make any intelligent guess to his identity

Castle Street East 1 to 15 & 11 Berners Street

The north side of Castle Street East between Newman Street and Wells Street. The street was also known as Little Castle Street. (Great Castle Street aka Castle Street West was its continuation on the western side of Oxford Market, and had a separate set of numbers which can cause some confusion). "Castle Street, Oxford Street" or "Castle Street, Oxford Market" could mean either section. "Castle Street, Newman Street" was clearly Castle Street East. All in St Marylebone parish

Numbers 4, 8, 10,12 and 14 (and 11 Berners Street next door to number 10) all featured in Harris's Lists of…
