Henry Siddons, actor and playwright, (1774-1815) was the eldest child of William and Sarah Siddons. See his entry in DNB. He first appears in the diary in 1796 with C Kemble, taken to be Charles Kemble, Siddons' uncle. He dines with Godwin at Reynold's in 1803 and then does not appear again until 1807 where he is noted in five entries between 14 November and 12 December - Godwin writes to him and there follows a series of calls.
