Once again, very many thanks Colin - what great information  :).

How refreshing to find the age at death recorded for both Jeremy/Jeremiah and Sarah - and what a grand old age Sarah achieved! The birth in around 1712 points even more strongly to Sarah Hutchinson, bap 1713. If only the marriage entry didn't look so much like Hicheson/Hickeson!

Oh well, you can't have everything!

Maybe if you look at the marriage record again and read the name as Hucheson, it might make more sense?

One of my ancestors was a Hutchison and I had similar difficulties.

I'm leaning that way - but I still think it's a bit of a stretch!
