Margery born 1775 was the daughter of John Trembath (Cornwall OPC Rec #1487723 http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/more-info/?t=baptisms&id=1487723). I think the correct one is Margary born to William and baptised January 4, 1778 (Record # 4259933:http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/more-info/?t=baptisms&id=4259933)
