Not sure if this will help

There is a marriage of a Robert Richardson to Mary Vellom in the Thorney PR's  October 4th  1740.

I haven't spotted any baptisms for possible  children of this couple  in Thorney until 15th December 1746- dau Mary.

 Could they have baptised elder children at Glatton.
Also you have put ? wife Elizabeth to Robert . There was one child baptised- father Edward R , mother ELizabeth + a Richard R  &  wife Hannah who baptised several children at Thorney between 1740-50.

Could they be related to Robert???

Hi thanks for the reply, i found the baptisms on the IGI all in Glatton - parents robert and elizabeth

You are welcome.
 Looked at Thorney because I have several ancestors there in that period. And posted that marriage  because you did put a query re the mother's name, and I understood it was the marriage of Robert  you are looking for.
And a 6 year gap between the Thorney's marriage and Mary's baptism in 1746.

Good luck in your search

Presumably the source said Glatton Huntingdonshire, so it would have been better to post this on the Hunts Lookup Requests board where people with the Hunts Marriage Index are more likely to see it. In any event I can't replicate your information on the IGI. I can see no baptisms of children of Robert and Elizabeth Richardson in Glatton, and there's no such marriage on Hunts Marriage Index. There is a marriage between Robert Richardson and Martha Gimber in Swineshead in 1738

Hi David

Thank you for more clarification. My own  ancestors in Thorney went back/forwards between the Yaxley/ Glatton and Thorney  areas quite a lot.

Which is mainly why this request caught my eye.

Found the baptisms now, not on the IGI but in another FS database. Doesn't alter the fact that there's no such marriage in Hunts Marriage Index. I'd try Northants
