Pearson

Submitted by edpope on

GODWIN DIARY: 14.10.1791 Pearson and his character talked of at J Hollis', with Dr Lister and Barry. Up to this point no Pearson had appeared in the diary, nor did any Pearson ever appear in the 1796 list. Most likely to have been George Pearson DNB 1751-1828 lecturer at St George's Hospital, as a public character and of special interest to Dr Lister. The next Pearson was 4.2.1793 at tea at Godwin's with Jardine, Fenwick and Symonds.

Evans

Submitted by edpope on

Bearing in mind that Evans was a very common name, the paragraphs below give a framework for guesswork

Mr Evans 15.5.1791 tea at Godwin's / 28.1.1794 Evans at Muir's === these two entries or either of them could have been Godwin's schoolfriend Richard Evans (qv)

3.2.1804 Evans at Hamilton Rowan's === see Joshua Evans 1824 below for one possible

8.1.1806 Evans at Joseph Johnson's / 6.11.1807 again ===

16.1.1806 Evanss at Jeremiah Joyce's ===
