He may have been married twice. It would make sense because Mary was born in 1796 and Robert 11 years later 1807. Are there any other possible marriage in Berkshire or maybe Wiltshire/Oxfordshire between a William Hitchman and Elizabeth? The marriage 1783 in Wantage is still a possibility

There is a burial for an Elizabeth Hitchman
1 May 1798 Wantage.
Not sure of age, as I can only see a transcription.

It says "young".
Around this period there are various descriptions:  infant, boy, girl, young, middle-aged, old, very old.
Difficult to judge whether someone who was married in 1783 would be perceived as "young" or "middle-aged" fifteen years later.
