Name Peter GLUBB Prefix The Rev. Suffix [ONS gp] [Father uncertain] Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Baptised 1632 St. Eustachius’ Church, Tavistock, Devon, England 
Born Est 1633 - Richard definitely had a son Peter, but it is possible I have merged two different Peters here.
I estimate Peter the clergyman was born about 1633 from date of matriculation at Oxford.
I think it safe to assume that Peter the clergyman was one of the three baptised in Tavistock around 1630: in 1628 (son of Charles), 1630 (son of Nicholas - page on this website here) or 1632 (son of Richard - as I have now linked here).
Perhaps Richard's son is the one whose age is most typical of age at matriculation, but given that he was a 'pleb' and may not have had the same education opportunities as some others I think it was probably possible it was any of the above three.
Given a son, quite likely his eldest, seems to have been given the name Richard it does seem he was most likely the son of Richard. The likely dob from his matriculation also fits this Peter best.
Glubb is a rare surname, and whilst there could have been other Peter Glubbs in Parishes whose records aren't indexed online it seems unlikely. Tavistock in any case seems to have had a large proportion of them.
There was a Richard Glubb of Barnstaple for whom admon was granted in 1669, the only example of a Glubb in North Devon I am aware of before Peter went to Huntshaw. Was Peter his son? Peter was quite an unusual Christian name at the time, so it would be a bit of a co-incidence unless Barnstaple Richard was related to the Tavistock Glubbs - as seems quite likely. Most of the non-Tavistock Glubbs I am aware of at this or an earlier period were west of the Tamar.
It is unfortunate that Alumni Oxonienses 1500-1714 which shows a father's name and place of residence for so many (for instance Luke, this Peter's grandson, is shown as 's. Ric., of Torrington') does not have this information for Peter.
Gender Male Education From 1638 to 1651 Tavistock, Devon, England Schooling - Estimated dates. Assuming I am right ** (which I may not be) ** that Peter was from Tavistock it will be interesting to find out more about the education available to the sons of the town's traders at the time, especially given that a century earlier their schooling would have been lost with the dissolution of the monastries and all that they provided for the local populace.
Education From 14 Nov 1651 to 4 Feb 1653/54 Wadham College, Oxford University, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England University - Alumni Oxonienses entry:
"pleb. Corpus Christi Coll., matric. 14 Nov., 1651, B.A. 4 Feb., 1653-4; of Wadham Coll. Feb. to Oct., 1650, rector of Hunshaw, Devon, 1661, vicar of Stokenham 1665. See Foster's Index Eccl."
Died Aft 17 Jun 1659 - Peter, son of Richard, Was alive when his father wrote his will in
The evidence of a vacancy due to natural death in the register at the DHC, Chanter 25 is dated 8 Apr 1674 - after the date of burial, so perhaps when the diocese authorities learnt of the death, clearly not when it happened.
(data on the CCEd website)
Occupation 1661 Huntshaw, Devon, England Rector - From his entry in Alumni Oxoniensis
Occupation 2 Feb 1664/65 Stokenham, Devon, England Vicar and Perpetual Vicar - Peter was appointed Vicar and instituted as Perpetual Vicar on 2 Feb 1665 (data on CCEd), following the resignation of the former Vicar.
See entries from this CCEd website page.
An entry in a Stokenham register listing the vicars shows his induction as Feb: 7th 1664 - presuambly OS so 1664/5. Since it appears to have been written with later entries, including Peter's burial as 'was buried April 30 Mar 30 - 1674'(!) not too much faith can be put in the precise date. (A later copy preserved the same anomaly)
