Dixton Newton was part of an estate in Dixton, Monmouthshire, and in Ganerew, Goodrich and Whitchurch, Herefordshire, bought by Thomas Griffin (c. 1698-1771) of Hadnock, Monmouthshire, Admiral of the White. He was formerly of Whitehaven in Cumberland, but had property in the parishes of Carisbrook, Mottiston, Portsea and Warblington on the Isle of Wight from as early as 1748.
It is not apparent from these papers when Thomas Griffin came to Monmouthshire, but the Isle of Wight property appears to have been retained until at least 1826. Thomas Griffin was succeeded in turn by his sons Thomas (c. 1739-1788), a Lincolns Inn barrister, and Philip (d. 1802), rector of Warnford in Hampshire, who both died childless, and George (c. 1745-1802). Newton Court was built at the end of the eighteenth century by George Griffin.
George Griffin was succeeded by his two married daughters, Elizabeth Ann (1798-1830), the wife of James Endel Tyler (d. c. 1851), rector of St Giles-in-the-Fields, London, and Catharine, the wife of Major Charles Marriot of Sellers Brook, Herefordshire. Elizabeth Ann inherited the Newton estate, whilst Catharine inherited the castle and manor of Goodrich. A third daughter, Mary (b. c. 1803), died unmarried in 1876. James Endel Tyler brought to his marriage properties in the parishes of Llangarren, Welsh Newton and Whitchurch in Herefordshire, and Newland in Gloucestershire.
Elizabeth Ann's son, George Griffin Tyler, assumed the surname Griffin in lieu of Tyler on inheriting the Newton estate.
