A-Z of Entries

16.3.1789 Hunter at Miss Williams' and 11.3.1791 (where it is wrongly coded to her husband John) as the 'Mes' makes it clear it was female both times. Anne Hunter DNB 1742/3-1821. In Godwin's 1796 list for 1791 and in the 1794 version as mrs J Hunter, which suggests that the 1789 entry might have been her daughter Agnes. The 1796 list entry has not been coded to her person record on the GD website

19.1.1808 Mrs Hutton calls

This was the only instance of the name Hutton in Godwin's diary, so it's hard to make any definite identity, but I think it was quite probably Catherine Hutton DNB 1756-1846. She was unmarried but aged 52 so it would be normal if a little old fashioned for Godwin to call her Mrs Hutton. Her novels had not yet been published. Read her DNB article and judge for yourself. There may be among her letters and diaries at Birmingham something which could confirm or deny my guess
