Nothing in Fen Stanton, whose baptisms are on the BVRI. The closest in Hunts on the BVRI is in 1658 in Lt Paxton, dau of John & Elizabeth POOP. But with no such thing as a Hunts Baptism Index she could have baptised in a parish whose register hasn't been filmed by the LDS, or as she was born in the middle of the Commonwealth period her baptism may not have been recorded at all

There are no Gifford burials at all in Fenstanton, and none in Hunts at around the date you mention - the one before was in 1661 in St Ives and the next was in 1686 in Warboys
