Thomas Taylor's father (also Thomas) was a tobacco pipe maker. His son William was as in that occupation so it is fairly safe to assume that this Thomas was too if that helps.

There are probate and inventory records at Hereford for:
John Clibbury, corvisor of Broseley dated 21 Nov 1688
John Clibbury, corvisor of Broseley dated 18 July 1740
Joshua Clibbury, collier of Broseley dated 12 Sep 1732

Thank you very much for this. The early John (1688) is a direct ancestor of my husband. The younger John and Joshua are brothers of an ancestor. I'd already discovered that yet another brother (Augustine) was a corvisor (shoemaker) and had found that he had a son (John) who ended up vicar of two parishes in Buckinghamshire, having been educated at Shrewsbury School. Yours is the first material I have that indicates that shoemaking was the predominant trade in the Clibbury/Cleobury family at this time. Many thanks indeed. Emma

John left £7 9/- 4d in 1688 and Joshua left £8 17/- 6d in 1732 but John in 1740 left £107 6/- !!

Let me know if you find any connection with the Taylors / Syners.

Also Thomas Clibberrie of Wellington (probably a blacksmith) had probate documents exhibited 26 Nov 1673

Thank you. I'm sure there'll be a connection, but at the moment I haven't been able to make the link with Cleoburys/Clibberys/Cleberys outside Broseley. There are a lot in Ludlow, for example. My earliest Broseley Cleobury is John Clebury (1640-1688), the corvisor who left £7 9/-. I'm not sure where the family came from before him. Many thanks for the details you have given, which have fleshed out the basic bdm info from Broseley parish records.

You could always get copies of the inventory and probate from Hereford Archives - it may mention a relative outside of Broseley. Odds are that as he left very little it won't though.
