Biography
Per this archive:
Otho Gilbert, of Compton, Devonshire was born at Compton 24 Mar 1419 and baptised in the Church of St. John the Baptist at Marledon. He died 2 Feb 1493. Sheriff of Devonshire 1475-6, he was a Yorkist and was the first on the list of those to receive knighthood if Edward V had been crowned. His IPM was taken at Exeter 5 Aug 1493 and cancelled 17 Nov 1514 because it was not indented as the statute required.
