Can see googling your past requests, one son carries the name of Richard Arnold Matthews.

Ancestry Gloucestershire baptisms

Arnold Nesbitt Matthews - (reading the original on Ancestry for Down Ampney from 1578 to 1812 - Page 211 of 312 -
Richard, Son of Mr Ricd Matthews & Anne his Wife, was received into the Church May 20th 1766.

(My Son, was born early, and we had him christened in the Hospital,). He couldn't be christened again, so a few months later, we went to Church - during the baptism service, and my Son, 'was received into the Church'.

To have the prefix Mr before Richard - was not the norm for ordinary folk - must have been important.
