John 5 May 1765 Milwich
Ann 14 Feb 1759 Fradswell

Her Husband John died 26 January 1795
I would be grateful for any information about John or mary particularly birth/baptisn dates and parental names.

When Mary died in 1816 she was said to be 78 years old.
Only two possible baptisms appearing on the registers currently available on FindMyPast
St Augustine, Rugeley - 22 February 1736 - Mary Tooth - very few parents given for other baptisms on the same page :'(
St Michael and All Angels, Hamstall Ridware - Mary daughter of William and Dorothy Tooth - 16 April 1737.

In theory FindMyPast has the parish registers for St James the Less, Fradswell, but there appears to be a gap in them.
Ancestry, using Family Search transcription data, say that there is a baptism at Fradswell of Mary Tooth, daughter of Thomas and Anne Tooth on 30 June 1737.

Fits with her year of birth calculated from age at death. A Thomas Tooth was one of the marriage witnesses (possibly father). She might be only 20 when married so would need parental consent - father might be present at marriage to give his consent and signed as witness

Hello
Looked up Mary tooth in Find My Past at the Library. Tooth is a new family name to me and there does seem to be quite a few in the fradswell/colwich area. Lots of tooths or is it teeth. (sorry apoplogise for that couldn't resist it).
Though there is no certainty I think it highly probable that Mary is the daughter of Tnomas and Ann.
I think the next step is probably to join Find My Past and go through the parish registers.
Is ther any thing else I could do.
Many thanks again for all your help, I would not have got this far without it.
Best wishes
