{"value"=>"<p>The Irish tobacco merchant, Nathaniel Trumbull, was born in 1749, probably in Dublin. He probably inherited the Dublin tobacco business from his father. Trumbull ran the firm until 1814 when he transferred it to Nathaniel Anderson who was his nephew and partner. Thereafter until his death he led the life of a country gentleman with social connections to the Irish aristocracy. In 1821 Anderson brought a Chancery suit against Trumbull who died in Dublin in 1823.</p>"}
