Dwyer 16.7.1800 at Reeves's
Just possibly Michael Dwyer DNB 1772-1825 though he was a guerilla leader in hiding in 1800. with a price of 500 gns on his head (Dublin Evening Post 19.7.1800), or maybe one of his relatives. Dublin Trades 1797 Jeremiah Dwyer merchant / Philip Dwyer musician / Thomas Dwyer apothecary. Henry Adair barrister = Apr 1807 Eliza dau of John Dwyer of Marlfield, co. Dublin.
25.3.1792 Dy(ck) & Scribe at Holcroft's / Scribe 8.2.95 at Perry's / 9.6.1799 mrs Dyde at H(olcrof)t's. Is in fact Dyde and Scribe, haberdashers and furriers, warehousemen at 89 Pall Mall. National Archives TS11/824 and KB33/7/3/(ii) deal with the case of Robert Dyde and Achille Scribe for attempting to export goods to France. A newspaper report of 25.5.1819 says "died lately at Montreal, respectably established, Mr Robert Dyde late of Pall Mall"
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 in his letters home from South…
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…
2.10.1807 E T en bas
The only other uses of E T in Godwin's diary were twice in 1830 where it was clearly associated with R T which certainly meant Richard Taylor (DNB 1781-1858). R, E & A Taylor had breakfasted with Godwin on 26.9.1807, six days before the above entry. So I suggest this was Edward Taylor (DNB 1784-1863), Richard Taylor's younger brother, who has a person record on the GD website
mrs Eagle 9.8.1800 at Lady Moira's
Simon Eagle of Gerrardstown co. Dublin = May 1790 Arabella dau of late Rev Patrick Kenny, prebend of Clonmethan, co. Dublin / Dublin Trades 1797 Edward Eagle apothecary 44 Bolton St
Eale 14.11.1799 at theatre
A rare name, nearest relevant reference I found was Joseph Eale, linen draper, Strand 1785. In the GD website the event tag for the theatre that night is blank. The plays were Fair Penitent by Nicholas Rowe and Turnpike Gate by Thomas Knight
call on EAO 27.3.1805 / 9.5.1805 call on IO / 13.12.1809 call on Equitable (Planta, &c)
Probably Equitable Assurance Office, Bridge St, Blackfriars. See my entry for Cooper. The IO could have stood for Invalid Office, but perhaps it was just insurance office, and the same one.
Eardley 2.3.1803 at Lady Valentia's. In Godwin's 1796 list for 1803
Sampson Eardley formerly Gideon 1745-1824 Hist of Parl (MP for Wallingford 1796-1802). His father Samson Gideon DNB 1699-1762 (where his date of death is wrongly given 1821), his sons Sampson Eardley 1770-1824 Alum Ox died unmarried but a son born 1819, William Eardley 1775-1805 Lt Col 82nd foot 1795. GD website has coded this entry to a person record but it gives no info on the person
17.6.1807 explanation, S S; adv. T(homas) T(urner) from Earle / 13.7.1811 Earle adv. at theatre
Possibly the attorney's clerk James Henry Earle (c.1787-1856) son of the surgeon Sir James Earle (DNB 1755-1816). He later took a law degree at Cambridge and got ordained in the Church of England. He was articled to Washington Coates of Lincolns Inn for 5 years on 22.1.1805 for a substantial premium of 300 guineas. Possibly also his father or one of his uncles or brothers but he seems to have been the only Earle in the legal profession at that time, where Thomas Turner was most likely to…

Ede 9.5.1790 at John Paradise's / 21.3.1805 adv at Philips'
The Ede at publisher Richard Phillips DNB 1767-1840 might have been (though it seems unlikely) James Ede whose The Gold and Silversmith's Calculator was published in 1806, though no copies of the first edition in Bodleian or British Library to check publcation details from. His next work in 1808 was printed for J M Richardson. His address was 12 King St Clerkenwell in 1809 (Sun Fire). There was a Francis Ede senior, merchant at 40 Friday St in Sun Fire 1812, a Francis Ede merchant at 9 East Place, Lambeth in Sun Fire 1813 (…

Quite likely Henry Edgeworth (1782-1813) son of Richard Lovell Edgeworth (DNB 1744-1817) by his third wife Elizabeth Sneyd. He gained his doctorate in medicine…
