About Gilbert Shakespeare
Gilbert was the second son of John and Mary Shakespeare, born two years after William. According williamshakespeare.org, "It is possible that he was named after Gilbert Bradley, a Burgess of Stratford who was also a glover as was John Shakespeare and lived in Henley Street." From EnglishHistory.info, "Gilbert Shakespeare appears to have followed his brother to London, where he is described in 1597 as a haberdasher of St Bride's, before returning to Stratford, where he seems to have fallen into undesirable company and occasionally foul of the law."
