- Augusta Corbet's Pedigree of the Barons of Caus shows "Thomas the Pilgrim, ancestor of the House of Wattlesborough and Moreton Corbet as the son of Simon of Pontesburie and as the father of four children: (1) Roger, Baron of Caus, ob s p circa 1165, = Avidia or Hawisa de Albini, ob s. p.

- Carl Boyer's "Medieval English Ancestors of Robert Abell" provides the ancestry of the Corbets of Moreton Corbet, eventually showing that Thomas "the Pilgrim" Corbet was the oldest son of Simon Corbet, younger brother of Roger II Corbet and grandson of Roger I Corbet through Roger I's son William.
Son of William:
- Visitation of Shropshire: Thomas Corbet de Whatlesburg in com. Salop, son of Will'us Corbet of Whatlesburg. Note that the Visitation line skips Simon as Thomas' father, and makes William Thomas' father instead.
Thomas married.
