Of five brothers, the second, Joseph, and the youngest, Joshua Ibbetson, were Aldermen, and the latter had just been elected Mayor when the second Charter of Incorporation was surrendered to Charles the Second. The nomination of Gervase Nevile to that office by the new Charter superseded him ; but when Xevile's term expired on the 29 th of September 1685, Joshua Ibbetson was again chosen, and he served as Mayor for the ensuing year. His \\nfe was the daughter of Christopher Brearey, Lord Mayor of York in 1669
