Do you have any information about the Cave family of the same parish? Abraham Cave married Betty Dwelly in 1793. She was a widow, and I would be interested to know her first husbands name. Abraham and Betty had three children, none of whom apparently married, and their eldest son, also named Abraham, in his will dated 26 Oct 1848, left his estate, estimated to be worth £350, to Robert Dwelly, Thomas Dwelly and the widow Mary Darby (also a Dwelly?).
Here is some informatoin for you, found today in the FamilyHistoryOnline database:
