The first entry above 1800 in Ireland was possibly John Barrett DNB 1753/4 -1821 classical scholar and eccentric. (John Barrett of the Theatre Royal, Crow St, Dublin  = June 1806 miss Devereux, Aungier St, Dublin. Edward Deane Barrett attorney of Dublin = May 1811 dau of Charles Burrows).

The 1809 to 1811 write to entries were at a time Godwin was writing to many provincial booksellers so could have been Thomas Barrett bookseller, Trinity-st Cambridge (Holdens directory 1811) but more likely Joseph Barratt bookseller Bath from 1799 to 1816 (bbti & PCC will 1825)

For the last two entries: will PCC 1850 of Rev Joseph Barrett 16 Devonport St, Hyde Park
