Would anyone be able to put even a chink in this 5yr brick wall?

Robert Tinker b.1749 d.1834 West Rasen Lincolnshire.
1st wife Rachel Heald M.1778
2nd wife Mary Thompson M.1816
Robert is the problem!! I have Rachel & Mary's details

All help appreciated

I can see 2 baptisms in Lincolnshire for a Robert Tinker -

15/3/1751 Robt s/o Matt and Mary at Sutton Le Marsh -I have no idea of the geography but it doesn't look that far away from West Rasen
27/3/1749 at Rippingale s/o William and Susanna - this looks a long way from West Rasen
Are any of these names used by Robert for his children? That might be a clue.
 
Rachel's children: Ann & Robert (there's a surprise:()
Mary's children: Martha & variously Helen/Eleanor
Sutton Le Marsh to West Rasen about 40miles on today’s roads
Rippingale to West Rasen about 50miles on today’s roads
Matt & Mary seem the most likely, but I won't rule out either at the moment, my rellies appear to travel around alot, Grandad was born in Legsby near West Rasen and ended up getting married and living in Kirton south of Boston
Thanks so much for looking Molly :)
