Subscribers to Felicia Dorothea Browne's Poems
(1808)
Poems, by Felicia Dorothea Browne, published in Liverpool in 1808, attracted a wide subscription list, headed by His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, His Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester, and Her Royal Highness the Princess Sophia of Gloucester. Although most of the subscribers were from London or Liverpool, there are many from elsewhere in the country. The names are arranged by initial letter of surname, each letter being headed by the names of nobility; christian names are rare, most surnames being prefixed by Mr., Mrs. or Miss. Many names are given addresses, or at least general locations, in italics. HARRISON. Cost: £4.00. | Sample scan, click to enlarge
