On the Robert Goodall marriage, is the first witness signed by someone ‘Wetton’ ? I can’t make out the first name - maybe ‘Thos’.  It is the hand writing of a very elderly or infirm person, or a drunkard.
It looks like the second witness signature on the previous John Wetton marriage.
What do you think that signature is?

Second thoughts - it might be Thos Fletcher. He might be the church cleric. Does he sign other marriages on the page?

I think the signatures are Thomas Fletcher and he does sign as a witness in other marriages.
