20.1.1807 Durham at Joseph Johnson's / 22.4.1808 Lamb (& Durham) at Coleridge's lecture

Unlikely to have been Shute Barrington (DNB 1734-1826) bishop of Durham - and Godwin would have probably added at least a Bp if it had been. No Durhams in Lamb or Coleridge letter indexes. I found nobody in Watt or Allibone the usual sources for authors who were often the guests at Johnson's. Also no Durhams in Holdens 1811 court section, six in trades (see work notes below). Perhaps one of the sons of Thomas Durham bookseller of 34 Cockspur-st (died 1798) and his wife Lilly (died 1800) who…

Abraham Dyson (see his brother Dyson,George) was buried at St Leonards Shoreditch on 8.4.1818 age 43 of Hoxton New Town, suggesting he was born in 1775, thus before his parents' marriage, which accords with the Treasury's confiscation of his effects (value £850) as a "bachelor and a bastard" (Nat Arch PROB31/1145/344). He appeared in Godwin's diary on 13.7.1788, 5.9.1791, 28.2.1792(not coded in GD website0, 1.3.1792, 20.3.1792 (not coded in GD website), 22.3.1792, 9.5.1792, 30.8.1792 (not coded in GD website), 1.10.1792, 7.12.1792, and 6.8.1793.

George Dyson was baptised on 18.4.1773 aged 25 days old at Christ Church Spitalfields son of Abraham, warehouseman of Barr St, by Margaret. Oddly both he and his younger brother Abraham were born before Abraham Dyson, bachelor of St Andrew Holborn married Margret Roberts, spinster of the Old Artillery Ground by license at Christ Church Spitalfields on 14.9.1777. Both his parents were already in their mid-thirties when George was born. The Dysons were noncomformists by religion. Abraham junior also fathered illegitimate children, (though they didnt survive him) and when he died the Treasury…
