One son of Louisa Mercier and Thomas Holcroft (married 1799). The children were collectively baptised in March 1809 shortly before Holcroft's death. There were four boys and 2 girls..
The DNB makes no mention of issue from Hocroft's fourth marriage, but Godwin refers to L Ht and sons in the diary from 1803. Also, the account of Holcroft's death in his Life refers to an incident where Holcroft asks his wife if they are her children making a noise on the stair (p. 310). The Morning Chronicle (25 March 1809) reporting Holcroft's death refers to him having left an amiable wife and six children under the age of 9 and two daughters from a previous marriage (repeated in Jackson's Oxford Journal). The DNB entry for James Kenney, Louisa's second husband, suggests that she came to the marriage with two daughters, as well as Holcroft's two daughters by a previous marriage. It suggests that she and Kenney had four further children. This is irreconcilable, both with the Morning Chronicle's account, and with Godwin's own listing of L Ht and sons. Godwin also refers to L Kenney and sons on 20 July 1813, which suggests continuity with Louisa Holcroft.
The name Harwood Holcroft, might have been done in gratitude to Col. Harwood who was a close friend to Hocroft as well as being his son-in-law (with Ann). Entries coded as Harwood Holcroft include: Harwood Ht; H Ht , Hd Ht, Hd + Ht. The most consistent reference is to Hd Ht. There is also an entry to Hd and Hy Ht. which suggests a brother called Henry.
