30.5.1796 Hume & miss Corney at supper at Joseph Fawcett's /
The children of Joseph and Alexia Hume as registered in the dissenter's registry some years after their births all have Thomas Corney given as the maternal grandfather. This miss Corney may have been a sister or aunt of Alexia, but as I have not been able to find any record of the marriage of Joseph Hume and Alexia Corney, I suspect miss Corney was Alexia herself. The eldest daughter of Joseph & Alexia Hume, Amelia was born at Newington Green on 4.10.1794. Alexia Hume was buried 6.8.1828 aged 54, of Kensington Gravel Pits. Godwin noted her death in his diary 29.7.1828. According to an Ancestry user-submitted tree she was born in Yorkshire but no more details or sources given
Amelia Hume married William Bunnett MD, in the 1841 census she was a widow living with her father Joseph, and in the 1851 census she was living with her son William J H Bunnett age 25 a clerk in the Admiralty Office. The second child Caroline was born at Chelsea 26.3.1797 (of Cooks Ground), she was unmarried in 1844 when her father died. The 3rd child and only son Charles was born 24.7.1798 at Chelsea, married Maria L'Estrange in Ireland and took holy orders, in the 1861 census he was Rector of St Michael Wood St London. The 4th child Louisa was born 16.1.1801 Chelsea and was unmarried in 1844 when her father died. The 5th child Julia was born 21.3.1803 Chelsea and married 20.7.1832 St Pancras George Davies RN who became a Vice-Admiral, their daughter was the poet Mrs Augusta Webster DNB 1837-1904. The 6th child Matilda was born 8.1.1805 of Notting Hill and married the Hon Hugh Francis Manners Tollemache 22.7.1824 Paddington St James. The 7th child Augusta was born 11.11.1806 of Notting Hill and was unmarried in 1844 when her father died. None of their children appear to have been baptised and they were all registered at Dr Williams Library on 22.4.1812. There was also Mary Bower born about 1791 in Stepney (1851 census) who married the Rev George Todhunter at Lambeth St Mary 17.6.1818. In the notes to the Letters of Charles & Mary Lamb she is said to have been one of Joseph Hume's daughters. After her husband's early death she kept a school in Hastings in the 1830s.
23.6.1809 M(ary) J(ane) & M(ary Godwin) for Notting Hill / 25.6.1809 Dine at Notting Hill, w. 2 Corneys, M(ary) J(ane), M(ary Godwin) & C(harles Clairmont) / 28.6.1809 M(ary) J(ane) & M(ary Godwin) at home
The presence of 2 Corneys make it obvious that Notting Hill referred to Joseph Hume's household (so C could possibly have been Charles Hume age 10, but more likely all the Hume family were included under Notting Hill, and Charles Clairmont came with Godwin). Caroline Hume was the same age as Mary Godwin so that may have been part of the reason for this stay of five days of Mary and her stepmother (whom she is said to have hated). As to the Corney family my search has so far been in vain
