Fanny bap at Clapham in 1832 and buried at Norwood in 1843.
William could have been concerned about the high risks of speculative building, or it may have been that Thomas's style was too autocratic, and William wanted to be more involved in policy decisions.
In 1800 William was apprenticed to a cabinet-maker and joiner and in 1807 invented and patented what became the standard design for self-regulating windmill sails for automatic operation of the mill regardless of wind speed (within limits), then set up in business at Horning as a millwright.

Cubitt answered that the Union had not received the same complaints and that the employees were not utilizing the escape periods.5 At meetings held on 7, 11, 12, 13, and 18 January the major topic of discussion was seniority.

Cubitt said that he did not understand why, for months on end during the strike, there was a need to hire so many people but, once the contract was signed, there was no need to fill vacancies.

Cubitt also re- called that, during the preliminary discussion of the "guide rules we'd go by," the Union's counsel, Phalin, announced that, if the negotiations "went beyond" the "contract negotiations" and dealt with the outstanding pending charges and litigation, Phalin "would be the chief spokesman" on those subjects.
Cubitt recalled "a lot of legal talk back and forth." The Union's position assertedly was, "the contract negotiations were over with" and "a lot of these subjects in here [were] not mandatory subjects of collective bargaining." The Employer then modified or changed its last proposal.
Cubitt attempted to characterize the discussions be- tween the parties, pertaining to a contract bar of the pending decertification petitions, as in effect a legal dis- cussion over "legal interpretations" between counsel.

Cubitt suggested the construction of a brand new cut from Reedham on the River Yare to Haddiscoe (near St. Olaves) on the River Waveney.
The cost of this plan was estimated to be twice that of Cubitt's first plan but it was decided that this would be the better route because it would take away Great Yarmouth's monopoly and control over both river and coastal cargoes.
In the end the Bill was rejected due to the successful objections of Great Yarmouth and the owners of local marshlands who had been easily convinced that the new navigation would have devastating effects on their livelihood.
