	If you "Search All Members Trees" on GR, entering just her name, and Cambridgeshire as POB, you'll see that two people have her in their trees. If you contact them, they might possibly have more info. There's also a tree on Ancestry which says she married John Newman in Hertfordshire on 4th October 1761 - but no source given. It also says her parents (as in Kucinta's post above) married in Litlington on 30th April 1731. It says her father was born 2/7/ 1704, and died May 1762, both Litlington. Her mother was Mary Rogers, born 1706. No sources given on the tree for any of this.

	I meant to say - all the info I posted about Renny and her children/siblings/parents was found on FamilySearch. https://familysearch.org/search
