Notes - Robert was Chamberlain to King Henry VI. He was also Sheriff of Shropshire 1433.
Note: CP states that Robert d. in 1420, which conflicts with AR. "Experts" on soc.genealogy.medieval state that Robert did die in 1420 and his widow married William Mallory, as his 2nd wife. They have no one indicated as father of Mary and other children supposedly born well after 1420. There was a son Robert, who was b. about 1410 & d. 1436 (or maybe 1439/40). I am making that Robert father of the later children. In addition I am making his wife Margaret, daughter of William Mallory by his 1st wife (conforming to my original sources). This does not conflict with William Mallory marrying the widow of Robert Corbet as his 2nd wife. I have numerous examples where the widowed parents of a newly wedded couple, get married themselves shortly after the children's wedding.
- Robert was Chamberlain to King Henry VI. He was also Sheriff of Shropshire 1433.
