The identified person record for Restif exists in the Godwin Diary website but the three diary appearances are still coded as unidentified. Known as Restif de la Bretonne he is now a bit of a cult figure, maybe the French William Blake

While we're on this, I also have Maria Knipe James dau. of John & Jane born 8th March last bapt. 8.10.1770 St Mary Rotherhithe. This corresponds to Godwin's note that she…

Godwin didn't often use the &c in a list of callers (I use it on this website to abbreviate his lists but in this case and on the next day with Kingston he used the &c). Rexworthy and Tracy both only appeared once in diary. Both rare names
