I think that the parish record of Jane’s marriage is at https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VH61-RW7?cid=fs_copy (it has images of parish records as well as transcription)

Groom Name: Jacobus Prescote Bride Name: Jana Corbyne Marriage Date: 18 Oct 1625 Place: Arley, Warwickshire, England

I think the birth year is too early - it's out of line with other children of George & Mary (born 1590s, and richardson lists Jane as second daughter, after Anne). Could you share why you have her birth year as 1586?

I have changed the birth date and am amending the bio.
