15.7.1796 mes Temple & Arthur at Raven's / 8.1.1797 mes Temple at King's / 17.9.1804 call on Jo(seph) G(odwin) & H(olcrof)t (or Harriet?) : Curran calls n(ot in). adv. Temples / 1.10.1824 call on Lemon, SPO adv  Upcot, Temple / 19.10.1831 dine at Uwins with miss Temple

Temple was a fairly frequent surname among Norfolk farmers. Of the later four entries in London, that of 1804 may have been the Norfolk connection Temples if they were visiting Joseph Godwin, the diary entry seems ambiguous as to where the "adv" was.

13.7.1796 dine at Sewell with Flower & Copland

The GD website codes this to Benjamin Flower, as far as I can tell, simply on the basis of the surname. Flower was a fairly common surname among Norfolk farmers. See Sewell, Benjamin and Copland, John Dawson

13.7.1796 drive with Copland to Caston : Peasant

This was a long drive, Caston is 30 miles from Dalling, it's near Thetford and right next to Thompson where Colonel William Harwood inherited a property. They also must have driven back as Godwin supped at Dalling. I can find no record of an inn at Caston known as the Peasant. Peasant does occur as a surname but is rare. For Copland see Copland, John Dawson. See also Sewll, Bartholomew, and Flower
