family of Thomas Meggison and Alice Bell-married May 29, 1722,Aycliffe

Hoping someone can find the family of Thomas and Alice.  Possibly my gggg grandfather Robert is one of the children.  He was born abt 1730 and married Jane Davison in Sedgefield in 1773.  Possibly Robert married Hannah someone prior to Jane, but haven't found that marriage.  Then Robert's son Robert married Margaret Clark in Aycliffe.  So the Aycliffe connection is there. 
Thanks for any help.

IGI shows the baptisms of the following children, Parents Thomas Meggison and Alice-

George 26 Dec 1743 Aycliffe
Alice 12 Mar 1747 Aycliffe
Thomas 11 Aug 1734 Greatham
Jane 3 Apr 1731 Bishopwearmouth
Oswald 26 Mar 1733 Bishopwearmouth
Since this couple seem to have moved around, the Robert Meggison baptised 18 Apr 1725 father Thomas Meggison in Boldon (Batch C035921) might be yours.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.  I want to be sure I understand.  Is Robert one of the children of Thomas and Alice Bell?  Or did you find him as a separate entry with father Thomas?  I guess I can check the Batch.

Robert is the only entry in that batch, with father Thomas. But as this couple moved around, and Boldon is so close to Bishopwearmouth, I thought it was worth considering.

Hi,
I'm tempted to think so too.  However, Robert's MI states:

In memory of Robert Meggison of Hardwick Mill who died Aug. 7, 1792 aged 62 years

If this is accurate, Robert has to be born abt. 1730.  All the usual family names are there on the IGI you gave me, aside from Alice, as George, Thomas, Jane and Oswald are used repeatedly in my tree.  Funny, if Robert's mother were Alice, that we don't see it again. I guess Robert's marriage certificate should give his father's name if I could find it.  He married Jane Davison June 26, 1773 in Sedgefield (St. Oswald the Bishop likely as that is where he and Jane are buried)
