Ashton in Makerfield baptism lookup

[VicInIbstock]

Hello folks
I wondered if someone with access to the Baptism records for Ashton-in-Makerfield, Lancashire could have a look for a Richard Bennett around 1834ish for me?

I'm basing the name, place and date based on census information from 1861 through to 1911. I think I've found an 1841 census entry for him with parents Elizabeth and Henry Bennett in Ashton but with no identifiable 1851 entry I'm trying to find alternate sources for his parents but can't find a baptism.
Thanks in Advance.

Sorry, just realised that I put 1843, it should have read 1834.

Could you post the '41 census details, as I can't find them?

What was Elizabeth's maiden name?

Detail from Ancestry
Name    Age
Henry Bennett    30
Elizabeth Bennett    30
James Bennett    8
Richard Bennett    7
John Bennett    5
Mary Bennett    5 Mo
for Ashton in Makerfield near Wigan.

Richards age confirms the latter census and there is a possible marriage of Henry Bennett and Elizabeth Worsley on family search for February 1823. All details unconfirmed at the moment though.

The Bennet Worsley marriage was 5 February 1832, St Oswald Winwick

Witnesses John Jackson and Jas. H. Walker.
