Thomas Davison was a printer. The BBTI states that he traded 1794-1831 at Black Horse All, Fleet Street; 6 Lombard St, Whitefriars and 10 Duke St, W Smithfield. Davison printed Byron's works for John Murray II and also printed work by Wordsworth, Lamb, Keats, Lady Caroline Lamb, Edgeworth, Hemans, Coleridge and others. He was prosecuted and jailed in 1821 for printing Richard Carlile's newspaper, 'The Republican'.
Looking at the instances of Davison in the diary, the first one (1791) seems doubtful as it occurs four years before any other contacts with Davison and in a social context (ie, supping at Fenwick's with Holcroft) and has been left uncoded. The contacts from 1795 are virtually all calls, Godwin seeking Davison or in a book trade context. Godwin's Life of Chaucer was printed by Davison. 'Call on Davison (£150)' (9 May 1814) is interesting, as is 'Plagued by Davison' (11 July 1816). Godwin invites him to dinner once and meets him a couple of times at the Guildhall in 1824. 'T Davison' has been included (although it is unusual for Godwin to specify the initial just once in about 300 contacts); however, it has been read as a minor aberration.
