That's a great find Bookbox, but once you were on the site for The Royal Kalendar, how did you then find Henry Compton in the text?

I'd like to find a way of seeing if he was out of the country between 1822 and 1826, to see if he could be the father of John Augustus and Alfred Julius who were born in France at that time.  They both worked as clerks.
