Thanks Annette and Jan

Phil seems to have that information and we have given suggestions re obtaining records so we will have to wait and see what happens.  ;)

My own surname gives rise to various spellings now so I can understand the difficulties. :D

I would like to thank you all for the help you are giving me, please don't think I am not grateful because I am. It might just be me, I don't know. But there is nowhere I have seen that says FLM is FLW mother ot JW daughter. I know there are miss spellings every where, even here. But who's to say that that miss spelling is FLM or FLW. I have been researching this line for a number of years now. In fact I have 5 five trees on the go. The funny thing, believe it or not is that all trees have hit a wall of some sort in the late 1700's. coincidence or not. This tree in particularly, is to see how far I can trace my family history back. I have lost count on how many surnames it goes through amongst other things. But what I can say, once I have documented proof I can get back to 1670BC. That's not bad for & years work. Before anyone asks. Nothing is published on any of my trees till it has been thoroughly checked and documented proof is in place. what I have managed to get today is the date of FLW wedding. Thank you. Now, her birth/baptism, if I can find it should give the name of one of her parents at least.

Back again to this one https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/N5B8-H2Q 
What is it that makes you wonder about this one?

I can see that you want proof but the names all fit and you can find the others that Annette has posted.

As mentioned before the original entry for Frances' baptism would be worth checking as there maybe more information and/or the entry may have been mistranscribed. However if you were hoping the entry may include mother's maiden-name you are very unlikely to find it on an English record. I have never seen this information included in Bedfordshire (or any other county I've researched), although I believe there were some areas that did this.

You all know it's right!
I know it's right!
It's all in a surname!
So why am I not convinced?

It's all from Family Search - searching by place/time/ parents names etc

Waldon variation

Weldale variation

There may be more variations and more children perhaps

Looks like possibly another baptism:

Again name is shown as Weldon:

William bp.20/9/1759, son of John and Frances (no Letitia) bur.18/3/1761.

As has been mentioned, it is highly unlikely to find mother's maiden given on baptisms, especially at this time.   If it was on the original it would have been transcribed thus on familysearch. 

You don't know how lucky you are with their daughter having the same 2 christian names as her mother.   Most of us get lumbered with something like Mary, dau. of John and Mary.
