Thank you for the info it has helped me a lot

Hope some it is helpful to you, but don't forget that the pre 1837 records are mostly christening records and not birth dates. Sometimes people waited and christened several children together, for one reason or another, so those christened together may not actually be twins.
Don't think I can find any more, so good luck with the rest of your research.
Regards
Catherine

Do you have the marriage cert?
Is that why you think the "father William birth" is the correct one?

Joyce,
I posted the 1865 birth as it was the only one I could find for an Alice born in Cambridgeshire.
As you hadn't put any dates at the beginning it was just a guess.
