What's the source/provenance of "your" Humphrey's 1744 year of birth?

Not many Humphrey Pugh baptism's in the frame - have identified 4 on my first pass
16 Sep 1731, Llandrinio, parents Humphrey and Jane (25)
28 Nov 1735, Dolgellau, parents John and Mary (55)
20 Mar 1736/37, Carno, father Thomas, mother not named (28)
27 Jan 1744, Dolgellau, parents Owen and Mary, father a joiner (55)

Figure in brackets is distance to Bishop's Castle in miles.

The Dolgellau couple may be the same set

"Hazelbridge" appears several times in the newspapers with details that link it to the Hazelriigg area.

The newspaper description of the foxhunt (1877), referring to Hazelbridge Farm, postdates the map showing Hazelrigg by 17 years. It refers to "... crossing Hetton Burn ..." which runs south from Hazelrigg Mill. It is a puzzle.

Reply #2 = page 31. It should have included the continuation to page 31 which I had downloaded but forgot to attach (NOT the first senior moment of the day I may say).

Great to have the nature/significance of the payment explained. I had wondered if it was something of moment ie. a sore sparrowhawk was rarer than hens' teeth.

Spotted several mentions of "Hazelbridge, Chatton", "Hazelbridge, Belford" but in particular an item describing a fox hunt in the area. Several of the places mentioned can be found on this 1860 map and the course of the hunt followed but, again, mentions Hazelbridge rather than Hazelrigg.
