Nell, I am on my tablet so can't post links but on geni.com there is a tree for him with a baptism date of 17 February 1680, parents Christopher and Bridget. Wife Elizabeth Ivey. Unfortunately the registers don't go back far enough on Family search.

Edit:
Now I am home I can post the link.

Have fun, Nell! It's so satisfying to find some information for other people.

We are trying to transcribe further back at Cornwall OPC so perhaps more information will become available.
