      Father: Henry Rigden
      Mother: Elizabeth

      BUT this above possibly negated by birth and baptism of a later child also named Edward:
      Name: Edward Rigden
      Gender: Male
      Baptism Date: 5 Nov 1732
      Baptism Place: Elham, Kent, England
      Father: Henry Rigden

      Reference ID: item 4
      In this scenario Edward would have been 15 and Mary Ruck 20.

      A burial entry for a Henry Rigden:

      RIGDEN Henry DBL 09 Mar 1711 yeoman Faversham AD BT
      There appears to be no Will of this individual. No, this is not father of Margaret by wife Mary at Westwell from Hinxhill as there is a burial at Faversham, vizt:
      RIGDEN Margaret DBL 28 Jun 1703 wife of Henry Faversham AD BT
      Possible marriage of Margaret Rigden, above:
      MOCKFORD John RIGDEN Margaret M 05 May 1709 both of this parish Faversham PR AD
      In light of burials of Henry and Margaret Rigden at Faversham, this marriage may relate to a child of Henry and Margaret named Margaret and not to the Margaret born to Henry and Mary of Westwell.
