Answer 1

Hi, most of the matching parish registrations available from findmypast.co.uk for 1660-1680 seem to be from the County Durham and Northumberland area so perhaps he originated from further north?

You can find county specific resources at the GEN UKI websites:-

Durham = http://joinermarriageindex.co.uk/pjoiner/genuki/DUR/

Northumberland = http://www.genuki.bpears.org.uk/NBL/

General England = http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/

Cheers
