GODWIN DIARY: M calls from Sharp & Smith 4.3.1808 / 13.4.1808 write to Smith; M(arshall) from Shp

Both Smith entries above have been coded in GD website to the generic Smith. They should clearly be coded to William Smith DNB 1756-1835. From February to April 1808 James Marshall was helping Godwin get a subscription from William Smith and Richard Sharp DNB 1759-1835 who each provided £50. The Shp in the second entry was clearly Sharp and should be coded to him

mrs P Smith 4.3.1806 at Rowan's

Godwin didn't note Peter Smith in his diary till 17.6.1810 (see Smith, James) so this person was probably not his wife. At present I have no other idea who she was
