Thank you so much for trying Janet. I suppose the chances that this is my David are pretty slim. The name is fairly rare in England (he was born in London), but common in Ireland, so this man in New York is more likely to be of Irish heritage. I expect the death notice would tell me no more than the information recorded on Find a Grave, so I would be none the wiser!

Merry - the Spectator Archive offers a month's free trial alongside a page from Sep 1833.

Isn't that a different Spectator, though?

Oh, is it? That'll teach me to leave it to those who know what they're doing (!)

I do wonder where Find A Grave got that from, though, if no issues from September 1833 are extant. This still bothers me.
