New Case Themes Added to SCOS

The York Buildings Company Cases
The Governor and Company for raising the Thames Water at York Buildings was founded in 1675 to supply water to households in England. Increased competition from rival water firms forced the company to put itself up for sale in 1719. Financier Case Billingsley purchased the company in 1719, raised additional capital, and the company began buying up estates in Scotland forfeited as a consequence of the 1715 Jacobite Uprising.
