AB Recent historical accounts of aspects of life during the long eighteenth century are replete with fascinating vignettes of little-known figures. As individual sketches, they are illustrative of larger arguments, but the assumption has been that, in general, scholars have already retrieved all the information they could about socially or historically obscure characters, and consequently nothing else has been sought. But over the past few decades, techniques and technologies have dramatically changed the landscape of biographical research. This is demonstrated in the current study, a biographical microhistory of shoemaker Edmund Sibly, his sons Ebenezer, Manoah, and Job, daughter Charity, and granddaughter Urania
