In 1811, this business was listed as American merchants and button makers at South Street.  Thomas (c.1773-1844), William (bapt.1776-1852), and George (1783-1838) were the sons of William Newbould Sen. (1749-1802).  The latter was the son of Thomas Newbould (Master Cutler, 1751), brother of Samuel (Master Cutler, 1800), and had married Sarah, the daughter of Thomas Holy (see Holy, Newbould & Suckley).  By 1812, Thomas, William and George had taken over their late father’s business at South Street from his executors; during the 1820s, they also owned Intake Colliery.  The South Street partnership broke up in 1829.  George settled in New York until his death there on 23 December 1838; William continued to operate Intake colliery (he died on 4 August 1852 and was buried at Ecclesall).  Thomas Sen. was buried at St James’s Church on 30 May 1844.  The latter’s son, Thomas Jun. (born 1800), traded as Thomas Newbould & Co in New York in the 1820s, but was plagued by bankruptcy.  The diaries of Thomas Asline Ward (Bell, 1909¹) contain references to the Newbould family.
