Looking for the burial of a Richard Massey, baptised at Rostherne in 1736, married by licience at Sandbach , 1759, apparently alive at the death of his daughter Betty Massey in 1779. when he would be 43. She died at Ollerton.

Wife Sarah Cherry buried at St Johns, Knutsford in 1775, further generations also buried there, previously ones buried at St Mary, Rostherne, Cheshire.
Richard a farmer at Ollerton, near Knutsford for 20 years.

No obvious match to this Richard, suggestions welcome... :-(
