Godwin's meetings with Wakefield take place in the homes of Brand Hollis, Frend (whom Wakefield defended), and Northmore. He notes Wakefield's death in 1801, although he is a day late (Wakefield dies 9th Sept). It is unclear to whom later Wakefield entries refer, although his brother Thomas had a parish in Richmond. There are six later entries, not coded, that appear from 1810 to 1816.
