Same date given by Vivan.
The Wrefords of Morchard Bishop and Clannaborough were an ancient armigerous family and Vivian has an extensive tree of Elizabeth's ancestors back to the 1400s - although he is not always accurate it should be of use to anyone related to Elizabeth (including any descendants of John and Elizabeth).

"John Wreford and Thomazin Gotham Both of this
Parish were
Married in this Church by Banns
this third Day of January in the Year One Thousand seven Hundred
and sixty four by me Peter Tucker [Curate]
This Marriage was John Wreford
solemnized between Us Thomazin Gotham
In the John Page
Presence of Wm Steer"(n.b. while it could have been another Thamzin, 1st cousin to this one, who married John Wreford it seems unlikely for a couple of reasons.
Firstly, a Thomazin GOTHAM was buried in Morchard Bishop in 1798, with her age given as 63 in the burial register. This Thamisin and her cousin would seem to be the only possibilities to be the one buried in 1798. This would fit the other Thomasin well, as she was baptised in 1735, but be c. 6 years out for this one.
Secondly, a witness at the marriage was one John PAGE. This Thamisin had a brother-in-law with this name. Whilst he could have been a witness as a "cousin-in-law", it is far more likely he performed this act as a brother-in-law).
