NOTE: This family does NOT appear to be related to the Richmond/Webbe Family of Draycott, Wiltshire, which is in the north end of the county, while Salisbury is in the south. Alternate dates in red are from a book found at the Society of Genealogists in London in May, 2011: Descendants of William Webbe (c1466-1523) Researched by Richard J Cornwell between 2003 and 2006. I do not know that they are any better or worse estimates than those I had originally. They do indicate a shorter lifespan, as expected in the 15-17th centuries, although in rare cases, people did live to advanced age.
