Samuel Godbehere registered his first mark on his own and worked alone for only a very short time. He registered a mark in partnership with Edward Wigan on 13th September 1786. This partnership lasted for some fourteen years until they then included James Bult in the partnership and registered themselves as “S Godbehere & Co.” This was on 15th March 1800. Godbehere, Wigan & Bult made sugar tongs throughout their period together, in the standard styles for the period. The partnership lasted until 16th September 1818 when Godbehere & Bult registered a mark on their own.
