| 25 Oct 1740 | Covent Garden | £1 1s | Do [Mr J. Rich] by mr Godfrey | On 6 January 1741 were separate payments to John Rich "by Mr. Godfrey in full of his bill for Wages &c." and "Mrs. Godfrey, in full of her bill, for looking after the House &c.", so perhaps Mr Godfrey was involved in housekeeping. |
| 25 Oct 1740 | Covent Garden | £5 5s | Mr J. Rich by mrs Holms | CG paid Mrs Holm(e)s fairly often throughout the 1740-41 season, almost always as "Mr. J. Rich by Mrs. Holms", always 5 guineas except for her final payment, which was "in full for Wages". But she is not in BD and her role is unclear. |
