Family of John Peck(e) - Little Barford - 1680 to 1700

I am trying to trace the above. I have found the following (all children of John and Abigail Peck(e)):
Elizabeth Pecke   C: 28 Aug 1687   
Margaret Pecke   C: 17 Feb 1689   
Abigail Peck   C: 5 Oct 1690   
John Pecke   C: 30 Dec 1692   
Ann Peck      C: 18 Aug 1695   Born: 5 Aug 1695
Mary Peck      C: 6 Feb 1697   Born: 6 Feb 1697

Also the following burials:
Abigail Peck   B: 31 Oct 1699   wife of John Peck   carpenter
John Peck   B: 21 Nov 1699   carpenter

However the only marriage I can find is:
John Pecke   M: 21 Jun 1686   Elizabeth Bettam   (John Pecke Carpenter)

How likely is it that Elizabeth became Abigail!

It does seem likely that after Elizabeth Bettam married John Pecke in 1686 that she was then known as Abigail, but there is no real evidence. I cannot find a baptism in Bedfordshire for either Elizabeth or Abigail Bettam.

I think you are correct. There is a christening of Elizabeth Bettam at Little Barford on 7 Nov 1661 - parents Robert and Elizabeth. No siblings that I could find.

Seems that baptism entry is in the name of Betham (or Botham) as per the PR transcript.
There is a burial on 6 Dec 1678 of Elizabeth, daughter of Elizabeth Bettam, widow and another burial on 7 March 1694 of Widow Bettam. However I've not found burial of Robert Bettam between 1661 & 1678.
