Have found the burial of one Dorothy Massey wife of Richard Massey, Gent. of Rostherne, Cheshire - dated 06/01/1730/31.
He dies 10/01/1747/46 buried at Rosthenre , Gent. of Rostherne.
4 more children at Rostherne, no mothers name..

The first child of RM is Bridget 05/01/1690 , no mothers name noted/
Second child Dorothy 05/05/1692 -of Mr RM Esq. no mothers name noted.

I cannot find a possible marriage for these two people at any period - even presuming Dorothy is a second wife.

Any suggestions please?
