Other Free Pipe Makers

In addition to gaining freedom by serving an apprenticeship, there were others ways:  if the person's father was a free man, by marrying the daughter of a free man, and by order of the council.  The latter option could be applied to someone who had served an apprenticeship outside the city and would probably require payment of a fine.  It would appear that these options were more available to people of a higher social status.
