Andrews, Francis

Godwin's diary Vol VII f 46r: M P Andrews, Lyttleton's Moloch, a letcherous old miser. M.

Francis Andrews 1718-1774 (A History of the Irish Parliament) fits the bill, in some people's views. There were no MPs with surname Andrews in English Parliament in 1754 - 1820. George Lyttelton DNB 1709-1773 would seem to be the likely author, but I can find no instance of Moloch in his works. M could be James Marshall or Basil Montagu among others

Arabin

Arabins 28.1.1798 at (Horne) Tooke's (Arabin in Godwin's 1796 list) / 15.2.1800 Arabin jr at opera

Likely to have been William John Arabin (will PCC 1829 general) and his son William St Julien Arabin (will PCC 1842 serjeant of law).

Arch

Arch 3.7.1800 at Colles's (in Ireland) / 17.12.1801 Arch's at Lamb's / 20.5.1805 Arch at Lamb's / 26.9.1809 call on Arch / 16.11.1809 again / 17.6.1812 again / 18.6.1812 again

The only examples of the name Arch I found in Ireland were John Arch born 1748 Dublin and Nicholas Arch married 1773 Dublin. As with Tobin, Hume, Higgins, Ridgway and Johnson I reckon the GD website coding of those names in Ireland to Godwin's friends of those names in England is unconvincing, but If Colles was the bookseller Isaac Colles (which is just one possibility, see Colles) then perhaps the Arch…


Archer

1789 entry perhaps and 1812 entry probably John Archer Dublin bookseller (Dublin Book Trades) as many of Robinson's guests were Dublin publishers (White, Jenkins, Potts). The 1802 entry was probably Jasper Archer (see Miller for why). A Jasper Archer of St Ann Aldersgate haberdasher married Ann Howard there 20.3.1768. A Jasper Archer son of William of Carpenters Company was apprenticed 7.8.1759 to Thomas Hassell of Skinner's Company, he was baptised 5.5.1745 at…
