Jane Newbon (in her early 60s) was once again in Blackfriars, (having moved to Islington with James in the 1820s), living with her fourth son John (a warehouseman) in Great Carter Lane. She is listed as ‘of independent means’. Her daughter Elizabeth can be found living with her elder brother James Shelton Newbon and his family in Sussex. |

John Newbon is the sole member of the family living at 1 Wardrobe Place, Blackfriars, together with a housekeeper. Jane Newbon can be found boarding with her daughter Elizabeth at 27 Lower Phillimore Place, Kensington. Jane’s will, drawn up several months later on July 26th 1851, gives Wardrobe Place as her address, however. |
1861 |
- |
the only occupants of no.1 Wardrobe Place were the same housekeeper as 10 years previously and one other servant, although it continued to be the business address of the family solicitors’ firm. Jane Newbon is listed (shortly before her death on April 17th that year) with her son John (then aged 45) and also her daughter Elizabeth (who was 41), as well as one general servant, at 9 Cambridge Road, Hammersmith. This address (close to the home of Jane’s eldest son James Shelton Newbon) was where Walter William Newbon, Jane’s second son, had been living in 1851, when he was listed as an ‘agent and seer’. Walter died in 1859, aged 50, but whether his mother and sister moved in before or after his death is not known – we know that his younger brother John was still living in Blackfriars after Walter William’s death. |
1871 |
- |
brother and sister John and Elizabeth Newbon are living together, again at 9 Cambridge Road, Hammersmith. John is listed as a ‘clerk in a merchant’s office’. One general domestic servant is also listed. At some point between after 1871 John and Elizabeth Newbon moved the short distance to 20 Cambridge Road, which their wills show was their home at their respective deaths in 1876 and 1881. |
