He had two children from his first marriage, Fanny (b. ca. 1755) and Buckley (possibly b. 1752 in Weston, Somerset). According to Boswell (LJ031262), Lt-Col Gould participated in the Affair of St. Cast. (Link) Life with James Boswell:
Boswell first met Nathaniel Gould on 03/12-62. During the following months he often dined with the Goulds, and enjoyed their company. Boswell especially seems to have taken a liking to the Colonel. (In LJ080163 Boswell describes the Colonel's charming indolence)
Research info Nathaniel Gould's daughter, Fanny, is probably the Fanny Gould who married Lt-Gen Charles Horneck (Link) in Bath in 1790, and died in 1832 (Link).
