Conduitt, John 1688-1737

Student at Trinity College Cambridge. In 1717 Conduitt married Catherine Barton, Newton's niece, and began to record biographical material about Newton. Almost all of these notes are now in the Keynes collection. After Newton's death, Conduitt succeeded him as Master of the Royal Mint and commissioned the memorial to Newton in Westminster Abbey.

All the biographical notes are also available as a single list.
