Think we both had the same idea, Hepburn 

Added - strangely, I was looking at the Frodesley records today - some of my ancestors were there in 16-17th century!

Wonderful that is indeed them, the youngest married Christiana and they appear to be living with his father at that time.

I don't know how you found this do tell, I have looked high and low and used different spellings of the name.

Many thanks for this.

I put in his first name (with variations) R* and date of birth +/-5 and Shropshire. 

A very odd variation of the surname came up in Frodesley.   I them looked at the image and saw that the surname was likely to be him!

Great thanks, I need to try with these ideas - I pay for Genes Reunited which to honest I don't think is great
