Her baptism is in the England & Wales Christening Records on ancestry (taken from the British Isles Vital Records Index), Mary Heritage christened 15 Apr 1789 Trowbridge, born 10 Sep 1781, parents Robert and Betty. There are also loads of entries for that same baptism on FamilySearch, but I had to put the place name in as England rather than Trowbridge for it to come up.

There is a marriage between Robert Heritage and Betty Watts 3 Mar 1772 at Seend, Wiltshire. It looks as though they started having children soon after that but waited to get them all baptised together in 1789 - let me know if you can't find them on FamilySearch and I'll do a list. Anyway, looks likely to be the right marriage.

Thanks Kite. I wonder why I couldn't find that on Ancestry. I'm sure I looked on there.

I'll investigate on there later today. Thanks again.
