This fine piece is in excellecnt condition, has a good colour and is very well marked on the reverse. The Arms are those of Samuel Newton Esquire of Bromley Regis, County Staffordshire and his wife Elizabeth Fowler, daughter of Charles Fowler of Penderford Hall, County Staffs. She died in 1776. They had three children, John who died with no issue in 1783, Mary, who married Richard Harper Esq and Sarah, who married Sir Lister Holt of Aston. William Peaston was a specialist Salver maker and had an interesting maker's mark of WP in a heart shaped punch.
