It states on the "List of Bank Notes and Coins" that the £5 note was first issued in 1826. Yet Dorothy Wordsworth in her, The Grasmere Journal (edition OUP 1958), records that she "Received a £5 note from Montagu." on Wednesday 8 October 1800.
Also in her same journal DW also states that on Friday, June 6th 1800 she had: "A letter from Jack Hutchinson, and one from Montagu, enclosing a 3 £ note." Yet the only such note in your list valued at 60/= or £3, called a Triple Unite, is described as only in use between 1642 - 1645.
Are these worth verifying?
