Thanks Janet, I've not seen that version of the records before.

I think that Robert Moule marrying as a widower in 1733 may well be the uncle of the Robert Moule who is the subject of this thread. Richard ('my' Robert's father) who married Sarah Brooks had a brother Robert bap in 1690 in Kingston Cambs, who I think married for the first time in Cambridge in 1712.

I will do some more looking at that book, Janet - have to remember they were also spelled Mole which makes searching some sites (like Ancestry) a but tricky!

Thank you very much
