So William rich's father was william rich shown on his marriage certificate  and on his Baptism record shows his mother as maria

Is their a marriage record for a William rich and maria  ??
Possibly in devon prior to 1827

Please

So William rich's father was william rich shown on his marriage certificate 

and on his Baptism record shows his mother as maria

Only shows a mother's name on the baptism record so possibly a different William
