William Gilbourne and Ann Lakinges
This is one of six families assembled from the parish registers of Yorkshire, in this case primarily the parish of Holy Trinity, Goodramgate, in the city of York. Little is known of their lives, but William and Ann married 9 November 1600 and had five children between 1602 and 1611. Nothing is known if Johanne and Alice after their birth. Ann had an illegitimate daugter, Ellen (Elling) in 1630, and Bettress married Francis Dobson at St. Martin & St. Gregory, York, in 1634.
Michael Gilborne (1611-1691) was described as a Searcher of the Company of Tailors and Drapers of York in 1651, being named on a deed of sale when the Company sold two houses to Thomas Hewley of York, gentleman. Merchant Taylors Company records show that he was abled 23 June 1632; searcher 1639-40, 1649-50; 1651-52; and warden 1674-5. He was clearly a wealthy man, his property in Spurriergate in the parish of St. Michael was assessed for tax on 8 hearths in 1671.
His son, also Michael, (1647-1674) was a Halifax attorney with offices by The Swan in Halifax. He drowned in the Calder after drinking with the Foxcrofts at Woodhouse, Skircoat.
[There were three burials in Holy Trinity Goodramgate that have not been linked to this tree: John Gilbourne, died 28 March 1608; George Gilborn died 25 September 1621; and Mary Gilborn, wife of George, died 5 February 1621/22. Could these be William's parents and/or sibling?]
