Hi Jenny
When following parish records to establish ancestry, there is inevitably some subjectivity and unfortunately before 1841 there is no confirmatory evidence. The following therefore is my interpretation of the records:
As you have said Giols Brain baptised in Ruardean 14 May 1749 to William Brain and Margaret is the Giles Brain married to Ann Vaughan.
Giles 1749 father was William Brain baptised 22.2.1717 buried 1.12.1764 married Margaret and had 5 children.
William Brain 1717 father was Giles Brain baptised 28.11.1686 buried 4.8.1749 married Joan Mutlow baptised 23.6.1691 at Hope Mansell 9.2.1714 and had 9 children.
Giles 1686 parents were Giles Brain and Elinor.
Joan Mutlow parents Richard Mutlow & Mary had 7 children.
All events Ruardean except the marriage between Giles Brain & Joan Mutlow.
I apologise that as shown in your reply I did show Cornelius where I meant to put Giles baptised 16 Nov 1811
I have more information that I could share and vice versa if you reply to my email address.

It is interesting that the gate at Ruardean Church bears a stone dated 10.5.1743 (which I have a picture of) with text endorsed by the then churchwardens James Mutlow & Hendry Heane. Joan Mutlow's brother James was baptised 12.5.1689.
