I thought there might have been more than one child born in the gap from Milton Abbot between 1821 and 1829; searching the Cornwall OPC database for any Woodman births in the whole period just showed Jane; if there was another child or 2 in this period there would appear to have been baptised in a parish not on the Cornwall OPC database or in the PWDRO entries on FMP (as of 6 Jan 2013). I've since found Mary in the censuses, shown born Milton Abbot c. 1827 but no baptism found there.
