Exhibition 11.7.1800 (in Ireland)

The GD website event tag mentions an exhibition in London advertised in the Times of that day, without noticing that Godwin was in Dublin. If you have easier access to Dublin newspapers than I do you may be able to identify this exhibition

Scully 11.7.1800 at Moira's

Probably Denis Scully DNB 1773-1830 Catholic lawyer. Dublin Trades 1797 Michael Scully lottery office keeper / Timothy Scully turner. Subscrs to D R O'Conor 1798 William Scully, Dually, Cashel, Tipperary / William Scully, Ohillips Town, Kings Co.

Moira

Submitted by edpope on

9.7.1800 dine at la. Moira's / 11.7.1800 call on Moira / 24.7.1800 again / 1.8.1800 call on la. Moira / 9.8.1800 dine at la. Moira's / 13.4.1808 Countess of Moira dies / 28.11.1826 Hastings dies

The two calls on Moira in Dublin were between two dinners at La. Moira's. Otherwise Godwin only recorded their deaths, using the name Hastings for Lord Moira. It is possible that Moira in 1800 referred to Lady Moira and that Godwin never met Lord Moira. See Francis Hastings DNB 1754-1826 and Elizabeth Rawdon DNB 1731-1808.

Mcgrain v Armstrong

Submitted by edpope on

K B, Mcgrain v. Armstrong 8.7.1800 / 12.7.1800 Macgray (at Curran's?)

Perhaps John Warneford Armstrong Dict Irish Biog 1770-1858 noted for his active suppression amd harsh treatment of rebels and radicals. The only possibility I could find for Mcgrain/Macgray was Dublin Trades 1797 George Magrane hat manufacturer and merchant. K B was presumably Kings Bench. Sadly I don't have easy access to Dublin newspapers which may have covered this case
