17.1.1810 write to Southworth
There was a John Southworth bookbinder from 1780 to about 1820 at various London addresses (bbti). He was a liveryman of St Martins le Grand in 1791.and he was of 9 Ave Maria-lane in 1804 when he bound his son Edward Lazarus apprentice. His baptism 1755 his will PCC 1838. A John & Ann Southworth baptised a child at Twickenham in 1804 which might explain why Godwin wrote rather than called. In Holdens 1805 court directory there was a Mr. John Southworth of 3 London-house-yard St Paul's. A much commoner surname in Lancashire
