Henry Clack & Martha Pettifer married in Bampton, 14 Oct 1801

William Clack of Clanfield & Lucy Hewlet married in Bampton, 25 Dec 1807
William Clack & Ann Turner married in Bampton, 26 Dec 1826

That's all of them! Clanfield seems to crop up a lot amongst all of the records so it might be worth bearing that in mind.

Hi Emmi,
Just want to point out that parents with two different surnames in a baptism registry, does not always indicate that they were not married. Some of the dissenting churches
such as Methodist were very "modern" and always gave the mother's maiden name as well as the father's name.
In the case of an illegitimate child, the mother is usually listed first, sometimes, but not always, followed by the father's name and sometimes a note about the child being illegitimate.

Cheers,
Carmela

Oh WOW Sleat,

That info is just brilliant, I have all those names but three on the 1851 census, so I know they are all mine, and the three not on the census, well talk about bonus - they are Hester's Parents, Richard and Sarah, plus John Smith father of George, so you've took me back a generation!

Could you tell me if Richard and Sarah married in Idbury?

Thank-you
Emmi

Hi Carmela,

Thanks for putting me on the right track, I'd not come across a registry like that before.

Best Wishes,
