Hiya Graham...familysearch - search -advanced search has 3 records for Fortune Vaughan
the 1662 Extracted marriage - Robert has no e on the end of Wild on the record
birth abt 1617 of MRS FORTUNE VAUGHAN at St Margarets,Westminster,London....so...could it be that Robert married a Widow ??....this would make Fortune 44/45 when she married Robert...have you any children for Robert/Fortune ??...if so - it`s the wrong lady , unless she had them very late in life ....do you have a death for Fortune ? and if so , does it match a birth around 1617......maybe her 1st husband was killed in the English Civil War..Shropshire was a hotbed of battles during 1642-1651
.Fortune /Patience /Hope / etc were names used by Quakers ...do you know whether Robert Wilde a quaker , ?

If it is a possibility Fortune was a widow....her first husband was Richard Vaughan...let me see if I can find a marriage
allan
