This Elizabeth (i.e. the one baptised in Wolborough in 1785) seems the most likely to have married in Ipplepen, where the family were living (where mother died the previous year). No baptisms or burials seemed to follow at the Parish Church there, nor can I find them in the censuses. The names are too common to lend themself to being easily recognised with a great degree of certainty in another parish, but a William and Elizabeth buried in the neighbouring parish of Woodland would seem to be this couple*. Elizabeth's age as recorded in the burial register suggests a birth in 1783 or 4, close enough to suggest that it was the Elizabeth baptised in Wolborough in 1785 who married William Paddon.
* - as at 31 May 2015, with most but not all parishes indexed on FMP, there were no other burials of a William Paddon to an Elizabeth anywhere near that could be the couple buried in Woodland. (The burial register does not provide evidence that William and Elizabeth were a couple, and I have not yet had a chance to look for a gravestone, but the fact that Elizabeth died in Ashburton but was buried in Woodland does suggest she was being returned to be buried with close family there, most likely a spouse)
