call on E Fenwick (Elise) 17.7.1797 / 12.6.1802 E & E Fenwicks at tea / 8.11.1807 F[enwic]k dines adv EF jr

Perhaps a reference to Eliza Anne daughter of John and Elizabeth Fenwick. Followed by Pidcock's, Exeter Change, the two other occasions when Godwin visited Pidcock's menagerie were with children, see Pidcock, Gilbert. For her later appearances see her person record in GD website and see Rutherford, William on this site. The 1801 entry above has the first E unidentified in GD website, but this was probably a way of noting mother and daughter without father
