Charles Newbold

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Charles Newbold (1764–1835) was an American

plow because many farmers feared that the iron in it would poison the soil.[1]

On April 1, 1807, inventor David Peacock was issued a patent for a three-piece iron plow (Newbold's plow was cast in one piece). Newbold then sued Peacock for patent infringement and won $1500.
