"6 Thomas Emet and Mary Elford ware married the 17th day of Septemb"
This couple seem likely to be the parents or Richard Cleave.
I have started, but not finished, looking at the Emmotts in Widecombe. The thought Hammett and Emmott (and variants beginnign H and E) might be all variants of the same name, but generally the names beginning E an those beginning H seem quite seperate, and no Emmot was ever described as alias Cleave.
However, I think Hammett and Emet may have been muddled on this occasion.
There is no sign of a marriage of a Thomas Hammett (or any variant sp beginning H) or of a Thomas Cleave (or variant sp), other than Thomas's first marriage and it seems unlikely that they would have had an eleven year gap between children.
There were several children of a Thomas Emmot baptised in Ashburton from 1695 on, but there was also a Thomas Emmet married in Buckfastleigh in 1694, with no children baptised there, so they were probably the parents of the Ashburton children.
There was, though, a Thoams Emott baptised in 1660, and the marriage could have been his.
