Richard Merritt

I am trying to find out when he was born, I am guessing he was born around 1773, cause he married in 1791 to Ann Ashfield, and their first child was born in 1793 in Oxford, England.
I am also guessing that his wife was born in Oxford, and that he could have been born in Gloucestershire, which is right next to Oxford.
I would really like to find out who his parents were, I have been stuck on this person for along time.
Please can anyone help me find him and his parents?

If you check the IGI there are a few Richard Merret's in gloucestershire in that time frame. Perhaps one of them will prove to be your man.
