Do any of the Ancestry trees suggest that the Thomas Haynes who witnessed the marriage is actually Richard's father Thomas ?. I presume it's been discussed.

Thatsaid, Thomas is a common local name, and as Richard is quite an "old" groom then maybe his father has already passed away by the time of his Marriage ?
Perhaps Thomas is a friend of Mary's ?
I can't help thinking this may be him after searching all the relevant PRs ?

There isn't a Marriage Record between any Thomas Haynes/Haines & any Mary abt 1793 in the FoD PRs (I had wondered if Thomas was a potential future husband to fellow witness and possibly widowed? mother? Mary Godwin).
Perhaps the above Ann Godwin is a relative, perhaps even sister of Mary ?
(Joanna even ?).

Pure conjecture I know, but ??.
