Mobley

The Noble Tribe of Mobley represented here by Lord Glenn, Seneschal of Mobley. The surname Mobley was first found in Cheshire at Mobberley, a parish, in the union of Altrincham, Hundred of Bucklow. The parish dates back to the Domesday Book of 1086 when it was first listed as Motburlege and literally meant "clearing at the fortification where meetings are held," from the Old English "mot" + "burh" + "leah." [2] Moberly was held by Bigot de Loges at the time of the taking of the Domesday Book and conjecturally, the family name is descended from this ancient Norman Baron. St Wilfrid's Church, Mobberley traces its origin to the oldest part of the church dating about 1245.
