Ely Hatton of Ruardean (not the one hanged for murder) (General)

Hope someone can help with this puzzle. I am a descendant of Phillip Hatton (born Ruardean 1649 - he's my 8x great grandfather). Puzzled for some years over the birth of his son, an Edward Hatton baptised 1672 Ruardean as none of us have ever found anything else about him. Now that Ancestry have actually got the original transcripts a couple of us have worked out that the entry is not Edward but Ely. This would make sense as a brother Thomas names his son Ely (the one who was hanged). Found 2 marriages for Ely Hatton - first to Ann Gray and then to Margaret Edy. Have also found baptisms for his daughters Elizabeth, Margaret, Ann and Jane all in Ruardean. Low and behold though he's gone missing. If anyone finds him/comes across him could you send him home please - this 8x grand niece would like to put this one to bed.

Many thanks.
