BURBY (CUTHBERT), bookseller in London, 1592-1607; (1) The Poultry, by St. Mildred's Church, 1592; (2) Cornhill, near the Royal Exchange, 1601-7; (3) The Swan, St. Paul's Churchyard, 1602-7. Son of Edmund Burbie of Ersley, co. Bedford, husband man. Apprentice to William Wright { WRYGHTE, Wylliam ‹ LBT 07708 › } for eight years from Christmas, 1583. Took up his freedom on January 13th, 1592, and was admitted to the Livery on July 1st, 1598 [Alber, ii. 710, 872]. His first book entry, the Axiochus of Plato, was made on May 1st, 1592. He dealt in general literature, and amongst the books entered by him was The Trimming of Thomas Nash, 1597, the imprint of which hore the name "Philip Scarlet," which has been regarded as a pseudonym. Cuthbert Burby died between August 29th and September 16th, 1607. By his will he desired to be buried in the parish church of St. Mildred in the Poultry. He left a sum of money to be lent to poor young booksellers, and left his stock and the lease of his premises in Cornhill to his apprentice Nicholas Bourne { BOURNE, Nicholas (1584 - 1660) ‹ LBT 07024 › }, in consideration of his true and faithful service. He also left bequests to the stationers Thomas Adams { ADAMS, Thomas (1566 - 1620) ‹ LBT 08760 › }, Edward Bishop { BISHOP, Edward ( - 1619) ‹ LBT 06930 › } and Edmund Weaver { WEAVER, Edmund ( - 1638) ‹ LBT 08721 › }, whom he appointed overseers. Cuthbert Burby had two sons, Cuthbert and Edward { BURBY, Edward ‹ LBT 08937 › }, and his daughter Elizabeth { BURBY, Elizabeth (mar. SNODHAM) ( - 1626) ‹ LBT 03126 › } was married to Thomas Snodham { SNODHAM, Thomas ( - 1625) ‹ LBT 07409 › }, stationer. [P.C.C., 76, Hudlestone.] His widow { BURBY, Elizabeth (mar. TURNER) ‹ LBT 03306 › } appears to have carried on the business for a couple of years.
