I'm not personally connected to this family - however, can only find 2 children born to Mark and Mary i.e. James bp.30/9/1781 and your Sarah bp.22/5/1785 Stibbington.

Mary died - Mary bc.1750 bur.8/12/1786 Sibson cum Stibbington, shown as wife of Mark.

Looks like Mark remarried to a Catherine Askham and 3 had further children 1788 to 1793/4 at Stibbington (on familysearch) and a Mark bp.4/8/1799 (as Dubrey) at Woodwalton, Mary b.1800, bur.11/2/1800 Woodwalton, and another Mary (as Dubuy) bp.15/4/1804 Woodwalton (familysearch).

There are some patchy trees on Ancestry - probably patchy because certainly early Huntingdonshire marriages do not appear to be available online so cannot tell you the maiden name of Mary nor when he married either of his 2 wives.

Mark Dewberry himself is shown to have been bc.1756 but cannot find a likely baptism anywhere in England.

Morning Annette7 thanks for your message and information, Mark married Catherine Askham on the 19/3/1787 Stibbington witnesses a William Dewbery, Catherine's burial 1819 Stibbington I have a Thomas 1788, Mary 1790, Sophia 1791,Elizabeth 1793, as the children. I am connected to James Dewberry bp. 1781. I can't even find the baptism of Catherine Askham

There's no first marriage for Mark to Mary on Hunts Marriage Index, so unless Dewberry has been mangled on the marriage entry it appears that they married out of Hunts.

Hunts is not well covered online - the IGI - as the LDS was refused permission to film many parish registers. Whilst Mark is shown as widower on remarriage to Catherine, and she was a spinster, could she have also been a widow, so her baptism would have been in another name? I can't see an Askham marriage in Hunts that would have produced a daughter c 1756

Afternoon bedfordshire boy according to my CD of Stibbington Catherine was a spinister perhaps she came from somewhere according to the CD I have she died in 1819, both her and Mark are buried in Woodwalton Huntingdonshire.

Hello all, I am going in another area looking for the baptism of Catherine Askham who married Mark Dewberry in 1787 after Mary passed on. As Catherine and Mark are buried in Woodwalton Huntingdonshire and Mary buried in Stibbington, I wonder if they were sisters or Catherine was a nurse looking after Mary as the time between marriages is so close, just a thought and would love to connect to other ancestors.
