    The 1635 birth at Acton is not supported by any hard evidence, but an IGI record from FamilySearch. The closest baptism is at Church Minshull in 1621, so Richard was probably on his second marriage, aged 36 and had children till aged 55 which is still possible. There is however, a "Thomas Brewerton", son of John, baptised at Acton 4 Aug 1633
