Goldsmid is the name of a family of Anglo-Jewish bankers who sprang from Aaron Goldsmid, a Dutch merchant who settled in England around 1763. Two of his sons, Benjamin Goldsmid and Abraham Goldsmid, began business together around 1777 as bill-brokers in London. They became great powers in the money market during the Napoleonic Wars through their dealings with the government. In 1810, Abraham Goldsmid was joint contractor with the Barings for a government loan, but owing to a depreciation of the scrip, he was forced into bankruptcy and committed suicide. His brother, in a fit of depression, had similarly taken his own life two years before. Both were noted for their public and private generosity, and both played major roles in funding and managing the Naval Asylum – later renamed the Royal Naval Asylum. Benjamin left four sons, the youngest being Lionel Prager Goldsmid, and a daughter Mary Ann Goldsmid who married Timothy Yeats Brown in 1812; Abraham left a daughter, Isabel Goldsmid.

Norton is a surname with origin from the basic Early English norþ + tun, meaning North settlement. There are many English villages called Norton or including Norton as part of the name, e.g. Midsomer Norton, Chipping Norton, Brize Norton etc. When surnames started to be used in the Middle Ages, a man from such a village might have the name added e.g. Tom of Norton. Alternatively a man from the north side of any village might be given the name Tom Norton to distinguish him from a Tom from the south side. A secondary source for the surname is from the anglicisation of Celtic surnames. It is also sometimes found as a Jewish surname. The famous Emperor Norton in San Francisco was of Jewish origin from a South African settler family.
