        Zaccheus YATES who died in 1855 appears to have been born earlier that year.

          Thanks folks.
          Was hoping for different info from that on FMP as Mary Ashcroft was nee Bracegirdle and from age at death she was quite a bit older than her husband and still having children aged 49. I couldn't find a baptism that matched her age but I did find a "perfect" match for her 10 years later in 1776 and the parents' names combined with her husband's ones are the same names as the first four of her own children. The next two are named after themselves and the last one possibly after a sister of the husband.
          If somebody had got 1766 instead of 1776 but 'tis not to be.

          How likely is it that in 1815 a 49 year old had a child? I'd have thought that was more likely a whole life span?

            I wouldn't get too hung up on the age discrepancy if other factors fit. After all, at that time age wasn't important, many didn't know their own so at death it was only somebody's best guess. I have many whose ages are 5-10 years out at burial always erring to a greater rather than lesser age.

              Thanks Glen. As all the other pieces fit - same grave as husband, names of the four grandparents vis a vis the couple's first four children, I will leave the birth date and place blank in the tree and put her baptism details and my thoughts in the notes field.
