Looking for baptism record of Robert Borrowdale

[ryanh315]

Hi,

My 6x great grandfather Robert Borrowdale married my 6x great grandmother Elizabeth Slee in Kirkby Stephen on 9 Mar 1785. Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Slee, was born in about 1757 and christened on 17 Jun 1757 in Kirkby Stephen. I can't find a baptism of Robert, could anybody help me find it?

Thank you 

Ryan

Familysearch.org have a 1745 baptism for a Robert in Cumberland,no parish recorded,might pay to chase this up.
Freereg may be worth a look.

FreeReg have this marriage and it says groom age 36, so born c 1749. It also says of Kirkby Stephen parish and he was  a widower. (Elizabeth SLEE was 21 and single.) Witnesses: Matthew SCOTT and Richard DAWSON

There is a marraige for Robert BORRADALE to Sarah MURRAY (of Ravenstonedale) on 14 Nov 1768 at Kirkby Stephen. Witnesses: Anthony MOSS and Edward COWPERTHWAITE.

Then there is a burial for Sarah BORROWDALE, aged 46 of Soulby, wife of Robert at Kirkby Stephen on 10 Oct 1784.

Robert BORRADALE bap 24 Sep 1745 at Kirkby Stephen. Father: John of Soulby.

However, there is also a burial for a Robert BORRODAL of Soulby on 28 Sep 1764. (Though there is another family with father ROBERT baptising children at Kirkby Stephen earlier, so it could be him.  )

On FreeReg there are various children baptised at Kirkby Stephen to father John of Soulby/Onion Flat around the time of the Robert in 1745. Though it doesn't give mother's name, there is a burial for Jane BORRADALE, wife of John of Soulby, on 25 Feb 1754. A possibility.
