Thankyou for your replys.     Cleophas Senior bap /20 march 1770 stalbridge ,   I have a Robert Senior 1794 married to a susannah symms  from a relative tree. as for Ruth i now think this is roberts  mother with cleophas father sorry no date of birth  .im still not a 100% on this .but thankyou once again for your help .

There is a marriage between a Robert Senior and Susannah Sims  on 07 Oct 1775, can't find a marriage to a S Symms at the right time to be for Robert 1794.
Baptisms in Stalbridge with parents Robert and Susannah
Joseph 19 Oct 1777
John  12 Jun 1780
Susannah   10 Jun 1783
Sarah   01 Jan 1786
Edith   25 Dec 1788
Susannah   15 Apr 1792 (presumably 1st one died)
Robert   25 Dec 1794

So looks like Susannah was the mother Robert 1794, but another Robert was his father not Cleophas.
Cleophas married mary Garrinch on 21 Aug 1777. He was a widower.

To add to the confusion
There is a baptism for a Robert Senior in Stalbridge on 20 Mar 1770 s/o Cleopas and Ruth (so Ruth must be first wife)

Cleopas and 2nd wife Mary had a son William baptised on 24 Feb 1780

Cleopas died in 1813 aged 81 so born abt 1732
