6 Poland St ratebooks 1780-9 Mrs Wright (poor). The note poor may imply she was let off paying the rates. This does not necessarily mean she was living in greater poverty than some of her neighbouring householders.  Others marked as poor in the ratebooks were Joseph Bennett at 20 Poland St and John Heslop at 25 Poland St. The name Wright was very common but two burials around the time her tenancy ended were Elizabeth Wright adult bur St Martin in the Fields 21.3.1789, Sarah Wright adult bur 3.9.1789 St James

John Taylor 1780 leaseholder of 1 to 5 Poland St (the leaseholder by 1789 was Alexander Scott (QV*)). Also a John Taylor leaseholder of 23 Poland St. A very common name but I wondered if this may have been the oculist  John Taylor DNB 1724-1787.
