See entry
from here.
See entry in
London Marriage Bonds and Allegations.
From here.
John's will dated 19 May 1759.
He is gentleman, of
St Olave's parish, Silver St, London.
Will witnessed by Cluer Dicey and Thomas Dicey.
John died in 1759-60.

In 1764, she (then a widow) sued
her brother
Cluer
for non-payment of her inheritance
from her
father.
Charlotte
mar 2ndly, 30 June 1764 [her age 30, him age 26] to
Dr. William Kerr [born 12 Jan 1738]
and had issue.
They mar at
church of St John at Hackney,
London. She is listed as widow, of that parish.
See entry
from here.
However, Cluer also had a younger sister Charlotte, born in 1734.
Cluer's will refers to Charlotte Kerr as his sister.
And refers to Dr. Kerr as his brother-in-law.
It was the sister who married Dr. Kerr, not the daughter.
So this Charlotte
is daughter of William Dicey.
