A possible for Robert based on the same church:

Name: Robert Watson
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 19 Feb 1783
Christening Place: ALL SAINTS,NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE,NORTHUMBERLAND,ENGLAND
Father's Name: William Watson

(From familysearch)

Can't see a Margaret of around the right age.
Have you got them in the 1841 or 1851 census?

Researching:
Weedon - Australia, Hertfordshire; Paterson - Scotland; Elmer - Huntingdon; Ball, Lloyd, Warren - Birmingham; Branson - Bucks;

Mike, when you say "I've already tried that" - do you mean you've done a search by names or have you actually expended the effort to browse the unindexed images in the England, Durham Diocese Bishops transcripts, ca. 1700-1900

What WONDERFUL people you are!! A HUGE "THANK YOU" to each and every one of you who has taken the time & trouble to help me in my research of the Watsons.
If only Watson wasn't such a common surname in that part of the world!!! :-)
