H Heslop & J Calvert 16.4.1800 at Mary Robinson's / 11.6.1800 Heslop & Calvt at Mary Robinson's

Most of Mary Robinson's guests were male but Godwin often used initials for females even where (as here) there was no need for initials in order to distinguish people with the same surname. No other Heslops or Calverts appeared in Godwin's diary and both times they appeared they were together. The only H Heslop in PCC wills was Hannah Heslop widow of Aldersgate St 1824, see work notes below.
