Goff / Gough - Bozeat, Northants

 

I. is a stipple print of G Goff (George, who married Sarah Barker 11/10/1814) probably around 1780-820, based on costume. The water colour 2. is unnamed but almost certainly of his son George (b.08/12/1829) and from about 1810-1830 again based on costume, although Northamptonshire fashion may have been a few years behind London. The artists of the colour portrait is noted as 'Messers R. & W. Kelly, artists' of whom I have been unable to find any record, either at the National Portrait Gallery or at the Northampton Museum. Anything known about this family and these pictures would be of great interest.
