There are a number of Barnards in the diary.

Most of the Barnard references appear to be to a Norwich dissenting family. John Barnard was a dissenter and leader of the reforming party who chaired a dinner at the Maid's Head Inn to celebrate the centenary of the Glorious Revolution. Thomas Barnard was a manufacturer who was nominated by the Norwich Revolution Society to join the London Society for Constitutional Information and is associated with John Horne Tooke. William Barnard was a merchant of St George's Colegate, a whig and reformer, accused of corresponding with the French National Convention He was also a dissenting councillor and attended vestry meetings at St George's Colegate Church The Barnards who do not always have an initial, belonged to the congregation of the Octagon (which also includedWilliam and John Taylors, the Aldersons and Martineaus).

There are a series of Barnards' in 1805 and it is likely that the majority of these are in fact another Barnard entirely, possibly to do with the shop. There seems to be no Norwich connection in these contacts and the concentrated frequency of calls suggests some urgency, perhaps a commerical relationship. The first contact is a call on when he is accompanied by Mary Jane.

The BBTI suggests the following names: William Barnard (1774-1849) of 1 Lower Fitzroy St, Fitzroy Sq (1802). 18 London St, Fitzroy Sq. He was an engraver/etcher, print seller trading 1798-1819; John George Barnard of 14 George's Ct, Clerkenwell. Water La, Fleet St. 57 Skinner St, Snow Hill. He was a printer rading 1800-1825; and, Barnard of Barnard and Stevenson, 4 Mitre Court, Fleet St. He was a stationer trading 1802-5.
