He married Joan of Sulham. Their grandson, Richard Lybbe of Sulham, called John the son and heir of RICHARD the Sewar.

1613 His mother made her lovinge sonne John Libbe one of the overseers of her will, but his younger brother Richard was its executor and the residuary legatee.

Interestingly the 1574 visitation referred to him as "sonne and heire" (p. 174).

He is a likely person for this entry in the Lincoln’s Inn Admissions book, Vol 1, p. 98:
