mrs Spence 2.1.1795 at Dyer's.

Sarah Spence of Bury St Edmunds whose poems were published 1796, subscribers included George Dyer, miss Chennill of Hatton Street (see Chennels, Lydia Frances) and miss Cristall. The book mentioned miss Harriot and master George Spence, children of Mr Spence by a former wife. She seems (from the content of the poems) to have had a son by him who died young.
