William Gibbons in 1542 and Thomas Gibbons in in 1588-9 each paid the Lord a rent of 33 shillings 3 pence for the lands they held in in Sedgley. In 1520 William Gibbons had a lease from Richard Fellow of Morefield in Sedgley. On 29 December 1552 Richard Gybbons of Bryerley quitclaimed to William Gybbons his brother his interest in Hervys tenement in Ettingsall.
