17.7.1795 tea at Amelia Alderson's with John Walker & Capt Hamilton. advĀ Dyer. Miss Alderson was perhaps staying with the Batty's but Godwin didn't mention them. An unmarried lady having four random gentlemen to tea was perhaps a bold and unusual event.
There were 3 naval captains at the time, Sir Charles Hamilton DNB 1767-1849, Charles Powell Hamilton and Thomas Hamilton; and plenty more in the Army. Boyle's 1794 had a Col H at 15 James St Westminster and another at 35 Gt Marlborough St. A letter of 1804 from a Capt Hamilton to Sir William Windham Dalling (1175-1864) about Mrs Mountain's performance at Liverpool is in Norwich Record Office (MEA10/106, 662x6)
