However, there's also this one on the Northamptonshire Marriage Index (1700-1837):

22 DEC 1795 - Jonathan PARKER and Susanna COX (both otp) at Burton Latimer CofE

(The above are the only two Jonathan PARKER/Susanna(h) marriages on the index.)

Unfortunately, FreeREG doesn't have the relevant transcriptions for Raunds baptisms, but it may be worth having a general look-around to see if their children can be found anywhere.
