About Otho Gilbert

3rd son.

Origins

"Otho Gilbert" is shown in the Gilbert Pedigree for the Visitation of Devon in 1564 with wife Elizabeth Hill, (daughter of John Hill of Shilston); sons John, Thomas, Otho and Galfrid (see later highlighted lists of sons from IPM and Will), and daughter Elizabeth Gilbert who married Thomas Grenefield of Stow (this may be Isabella Gilbert who married Thomas Grenville).

His will (image on Ancestry) when he refers to himself as "Otys Gylbert" was proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury on 9 June 1494.[6] It names sons John, Thomas, Otys, William and Gefferey.
