Note 443 — XL.—GREAT QUEEN STREET CHAPEL (Demolished).

“Yesterday was married by the Rev. Mr. Francklin at his chapel near Russel Street, Bloomsbury, David Garrick, Esq., to Eva Maria Violetti.” (General Advertiser, 23rd June, 1749). Fitzgerald (Life of David Garrick, p. 126) wrongly says: “at the church in Russell Street, Bloomsbury.” The statement of Mrs. Parsons (Garrick and his Circle, p. 143) that it was “at Dr. Francklin’s Chapel in Queen Street (the modern Museum Street)” is based on unknown, but possibly quite good, evidence.
