I wonder if Colbrond might actually be Selbrond. Compare the initial letter with the S in Sprakleyn.

If you search Hampshire Archives, Match all Words, for Titchfield and Reeves/Reves/Reeve/Reve, you will find many wills. These wills are available on Ancestry

There are several items at Cambs/Hunts Archives. I didn't check all spelling variants, but for Edroppe there were:

Edroppe, Elizabeth St.Neots: probate inventory 1627
Edroppe, John St.Neots: probate inventory 1627

For Edrop there are half a dozen more items, wills and inventories.

United States of America / Re: Job Swinerton Salem

In Salem Vital records, the only James Swinerton I can find born at about that time is

James, s. James and Sarah, June 6, 1728.

Online trees at Family Search, Ancestry, and elsewhere are unreliable.

These are from Plymouth Vital records. James was apparently of Plymouth.

James SWINNERTON & Martha BATTLES both of Plymo. married at Plymouth July 17, 1744

The children of James Swinnerton & Martha his wife
