Hi
If it was be I'd go for Richard Pritchard living in Morton Above or Rhosllannerchrugog carpenter born 1784 and married to Elizabeth Roberts 20.5.1808 at Ruabon.
Some of theri children baptised at the Independent Chapel in the village.
Thomas 1815,Richard1817,Daniel 1820 ,William 1822,Elizabeth 1824 ,Sarah 1827 and Ann 1830.
There is a gap of 7years between their marriage and Thomas in 1815. I think john was born then about 1809.
