According to the 1841 census, both Richard & Mary BOLT were born in Devon. Richard is shown aged 50 and was a watch maker. Mary was also 50 (- ages were rounded down for that census). There was also a daughter, Sarah Mary born 8 Jun 1829, baptised 23 Jun 1833. By 1851, Mary has died, but Richard is shown living in East Teignmouth aged 60 born Jacobstowe, living with his now married daughter Sarah ADAMS.
There is an OPC for Jacobstowe -see http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/Jacobstowe/index.html and scroll down to Genealogy for the link.
I would also recommend obtaining the DFHS marriage index for the surname BOLT go to http://www.devonfhs.org.uk/indexes.htm for detaisl.
