If they are of the time scale of the IGI and the parish has been covered, do a parent search. Put in the father's name and just the mother's first name and country and county, or use the batch number. It will show you all of the children who have parents of that name in that place. You only have a problem if they have very common names. There may be more than one couple. Margaret
