John CORBIN
Elizabeth ELLIOTT
Husband:  John CORBIN
Birth:  by 1630

I've found a source showing this John arrived in King George's Co., VA, in 1652 on the ship, Peter.  On the ship was a George ELLIOTT who apparently died on the crossing and left property to Elizabeth CORBIN, wife of John.  This record appears to be the source of the identity of John's wife, though it's unclear whether Elizabeth was George's sister or his daughter.

As John was clearly an adult in 1652, he was surely born by 1630, making it impossible for him to be the son of these parents, as often shown by secondary sources:
Father notHenry CORBIN (1629-1675)
Mother notAlice ELTONHEAD (c1627-1685)

Marriage:  bef. 1652
Wife:  Elizabeth ELLIOTT
Birth:  by 1635
Children said to be:
1.  John CORBIN, b. 1671 — said to be this John CORBIN, but I've found no evidence for the connection
2.  William CORBIN, b. 1675
3.  Peter CORBIN, b. ca. 1687

Elizabeth was a married adult in 1652, so she was born no later than 1635 and probably earlier.  She could been having children as late as the 1670s, but she was too old to be having any in the 1680s.  I have found no evidence to support the identities of any of their children.
