Biography
John Bowyer Nichols (1779-1863), printer and antiquary, was born on 15 July 1779 in Red Lion Passage, Fleet Street, London. From about 1784 to 1790 he was taught by the Revd William Brown at Stoke Golding, Leicestershire, and moved to St Paul's School, London, on 9 October 1790. His father bound him apprentice on 6 August 1793 while he was still at school; on leaving school in September 1796 he entered his father's printing office. On 5 August 1800 he was freed at Stationers' Hall and was made a partner in the family business. When his father died in 1826 J. B. Nichols became sole owner of the printing house. In 1818 he was elected fellow of the Society of Antiquaries and he frequently spoke and exhibited at their meetings. J. B. Nichols was called to the court of the Stationers' Company in 1840 and was master of the company in 1850. He died at his home at Hanger Hill, Ealing, Middlesex, on 19 October 1863.
