      ** This could well be the marriage of a different Richard - if I am right that he was the father of the Richard bap 1841 then he was married to a Mary but it does not show that he was married to this one **

      Although the register was filled into shown Richard having a middle name of Baker I suspect this was an accident. All the others did have a middle name, and in the next entry the priest (a different one) had again included the surname in the Christian name field, though on this occasion it was spotted and crossed out.
