Their first child Charlotte born 13 July 1803; baptised 7th Aug. 1703 as per Oxfordshire parish records on Ancestry. I do hope you can help. Thank you in advance.

Looking through the OxFHS Marriage index - 1538-1837, I an find no marriage for John Hughes in that timescale, or anywhere near it, to a Mary.
However, there is a John HOWES(of Clanfield), that marries a Mary King @ Bampton. 12 June 1800.
I've looked at variations of Hughes, Hughs, Hews, Hows, House.
