Isaac Newell

In 1876 he married his wife Anna Jockinsen, and in 1876 his first son Claudio was born, followed later by Liliana, Fortinato and Margarita.

[4] Newell acquired a property and in 1884 he founded the Colegio Comercial Anglicano Argentino with a distinctive red and black emblem.

The club was founded for teachers, students and alumni of the college, and was named in homage to Newell's life and achievements.
