Narrative

#################################################################
There are no baptism records for Over Peover before 1668.
The only source that connects Edward to the 3 sons is:
Antrobus Pedigrees: The Story of a Cheshire Family by Sir Reginald Antrobus.
Pedigree chart gives Edward's burial age as 77, so born 1623-1624,
He would have been only 17 when Thomas was born, which seems unlikely.

        "Edward Antrobus, the Chapel Clerk, had two sons—Edward and Philip ;* and there was a Thomas Antrobus who was probably also his son. Edward, the eldest son, was married at Alderley on Christmas Day 1670 to Sarah Hulme, sister to Daniel Hulme of Pownall Feet in the parish of Wilmslow. He predeceased his father, being buried at Over Peover in 1682 ; and his grandson, also called Edward, died in 1791, aged 86. By his will, dated 1786 and proved in 1791, this Edward Antrobus left his messuage, tenement, lands, etc., in Over Peover, of which he was seized in fee simple, in trust for his grandson, William Paulden, second son of his daughter Ann, who had married John Paulden of Over Peover, yeoman, with reversion to other Paulden grandchildren, and failing them to Ann (Nancy) Antrobus (for whom also other provision was made), the only child of his only son Isaac Antrobus, who had died before him in 1780. Nancy also died before him in 1786, aged 17. Thus the house, etc., in Over Peover, in which it would seem that an Antrobus had lived for over 200 years, passed into the possession of the Paulden family.
        But Edward Antrobus, the son of the Chapel Clerk, had left four sons and a daughter named Sarah ; and Thomas Antrobus, who was probably his brother, left three sons. Thus the line of Thomas Antrobus who died in 158I) which had been in danger of dying out in Over Peover, renewed itself ; and the descendants of the Chapel Clerk are found all through the 18th and 19th centuries occupied as farmers, innkeepers, blacksmiths, millers, weavers, labourers, and the like, not only in Over Peover, but also in Lostock Gralam, Northwich, Tarvin, Frodsham, and other places in Cheshire, and also in Manchester."
