Richard Tuff (b. 1754) married Mary Pasfield in 1783. The marriage record doesn't give the exact date, nor venue, but their residence was listed as Havering. That gives no clues as to their places of birth, nor lists parents or other useful details.

Records exist for five children to Richard and Mary:
  1. Thomas Tuff bap. 1 May 1785 in Little Waltham, Essex
  2. Benjamin Tuff bap. 27 May 1787 in Little Waltham, Essex, however, "Benjamin Tuff an infant" was buried, in Little Waltham, on 5 Jun 1787
  3. George Tuff bap. 16 Nov 1788 in Little Waltham, Essex, died aged 20 and was buried in Little Waltham on 28 Jun 1809
  4. Mary Tuff bap. 20 Feb 1791 in Little Waltham, Essex
  5. Samuel Tuff bap. 24 Aug 1794 in Little Waltham, Essex
On a page with the heading "Burials of the Poor no stamp Duty Paid for" is the record of the burial, on 26 Aug 1794, of "Mary, Wife of Richard Tuff". 

Richard Tuff remarried to Hannah King, at Little Waltham, on 26 Apr 1802

Richard and Hannah had one daughter, Susannah Tuff, bap. 24 Jun 1804 in Little Waltham, but the infant was buried on 2 Aug 1804 and her mother, "Hannah Tuff, wife of Richard Tuff" was buried fifteen days later, on 17 Aug 1804. 

Richard Tuff died, aged 62, and was buried in Little Waltham on 3 Jan 1816.
