Very much appreciated Peter. 

It seems I've hit a bit of a wall with this one, but as you say, the additional forename may prove useful.  It certainly seems unusual! 

Kind regards

Thank you for your efforts Peter - they are very much appreciated. 

The observation that John and Mary made their marks was quite unexpected - and might prove useful!

Kind regards

Mary Halfhead married John Russell at Ware (St Mary) on 18 Feb 1792.  It might have been an interesting ceremony – a Mary Russell (daughter of John and Mary) was baptised some three months later!

If some kind soul is able to look up the actual parish record I would be very grateful to learn of any other details.

The details come from the Allen Marriage Index, an index of marriages that took place in Hertfordshire between 1538 and 1837.  It’s available online at hertsdirect.org.  There’s more information (and a link) in the topic ‘HALS Online Name Index’ under Hertfordshire Resources.

Hi inj

I'm not sure whether this helps but there is a marriage record for a

William Preslan and Elizabeth Andrews at Ware St Marys on 21 December 1803.

An Elizabeth Chinnock was baptised in 1817 and another in 1818 in Ditcheat so perhaps this parish is a good place to start?

According to the IGI

Mary RUSSELL was baptised in Ware on 13 May 1792 (parents John and Mary) and
Jane RUSSELL was baptised in Ware on 14 May 1797 (parents John and Mary). 

I suspect the two girls were sisters and hope that the Ware parish baptism records might provide a further clue, e.g. father’s occupation (was this information typically recorded?). 

I would be very grateful for any assistance.
