hi I am hoping someone may be able to assist me with a lookup of the Painswick parish records late 1700's
I have a baptism of a Benjamin Humphries CRESWELL 18 Aug 1799 Painswick, Gloucestershire, with parents William Creswell and Mary.
Can anyone find further children to William and Mary and possibly their marriage
any assistance would be most appreciated

Just in case it helps with the search - the parish register image for this baptism states the surname is CRISSWELL.

Good Afternoon
There are three other children for William and Mary.
William bapt 18.6.1786 and Thomas bapt 28.12.1788 buried 30.1.1791 or 9.1.1795.Samuel 6.11.1791-13.7.1792
The only possible marriage I can see is all the way over in Kemerton
William C batch otp and Mary Kent spinster otp 26.10.1784
However there is another marriage
William c widower to Sarah Barrow spinster in the same parish 5.12.1790.
So not looking good.
The Cresswells in Painswick seem to arrive c 1786 +++
Thomas and Barbara - John 24.9.1786,,Joseph 16.10.1788 buried 15.3.1798,Benjamin bapt 16.10.1788 ,Hannah 14.11.1790, Ann 1797-8.3.1801and Willliam buried 8.3.1801
Ezekiel and Hannah -Mary 13.5.1792 ,Joseph 25.1.1795 ,Benjamin 21.10.1797 and Benjamin21.10.1799 (Ezekial buried 30.6.1801)
Mary and her 5 children -Hannah buried 24.9.1797 ,James buried 3.3.1799,Mary 30.6.1800 and James 21.9.1800.
But strangely no sign of marriages or baptisms.
Benjamin on his marriage has a witness John Cresswell.But who is he?
William is renting land off Amelia Temple 1826-1829 so certainly alive till then.Although he could be the son William 1788-10.8.1839 buried Painswick
Mary buried 14.8.1836 age 86 years I think is the wife/mother.
