Hi - just a quick note of something you might like to check on,  according to my copy of Boyds index to parish registers the surviving registers for Ardley start in 1758  however there are extracts in the IGI from 1680 this seems to sugest that the earlier registers haven't survived (I know the IGI entries are sometimes taken from bishops transcripts).  Is it possible that the events you are after did take place at Ardley but the record of them hasn't survived  ???
