Cooper was a cousin of Godwin's. When his father died, he was sent to live with Godwin who undertook his education. Later he became an actor - after the tutelage of Thomas Holcroft and Godwin - and moved to America where he had much success. He occasionally returned to England where he kept in contact with Godwin.
Entries are assumed to be Thomas Cooper if they are T. Cooper, Cooper, or, occasionally, C. In 1796 Cooper went to America. He returned for a series of performances in March 1803 - November 1804. There are correspondingly many entries for Cooper in these years, and a number for Mrs T Cooper and 3 Coopers (he brought his family over in the summer of 1803). However, there are also Cooper entries (2) in 1805, but as Thomas was at this time performing in Boston, these refer to a different, unidentified Cooper. Also, there is a T Cooper in 1809 and other Coopers in 1810, but the evidence suggests that he does not return to Britain until July 1810 - Feb 1811 so most of these are not coded.

There are entries to Miss Cooper, Miss E Cooper, Miss E P Cooper, EPC, E P Cooper, E Cooper and so on, but we have assumed these are variants for a single person. Many of the contacts are associated with her mother Grace Mary Cooper
Godwin also records her death and funeral.
