    Notes 
    • Age given on marriage licence does not quite agree with baptism - it's possible that this Elizabeth died and Richard and Rachel had another daughter Elizabeth, especially given the gap between the baptisms of their known children and that this was during the Civil Wars years when register entries are often missing.
