abbe 21.3.1802 at King's

Unlikely to have been Abbe Carron whom Godwin called on on 10.7.1802 as he was in Godwin's 1796 list for 1802 at the right position in the sequence for July

27.11.1806 :Abbey:

Coming right after Westminster Hall, and between two colons, so a single word for an event, it's very likely that Godwin took a look round Westminster Abbey

Aboyne 5.5.1789 at Miss Williams / 14.9.1789 again / 21.12.1789 again /  9.2.1790 again / 12.2.1790 again /  7.5.1790 again / 20.10.1790 again / 11.3.1791 again /  13.5.1791 again

A very regular visitor at miss Williams', not on her 1786 subscription list. The only instances of the surname I found were as the title of Earls of Aboyne, this would have to have been the 4th Earl, Charles Gordon c.1726-1794. see Gordon, Lockhart

Surely Archbishop of Canterbury? in 1790 this was John Moore DNB 1730-1805
