Hypotheses about her father

What do we know for sure about the father of Anna Maria Lambert?

• He was called Lieutenant Colonel Lambert (from the marriage announcement).
• He was born between 1700-1780 (given his daughter was born in ~1796)
• He was married before 1796 (assuming his daughter was born in wedlock)
• He died between 1796 and 1818 (he was dead before her wedding)
• He was a Lt. Col. in the East India company (which strangely a lot of Walmisleys were)
• He lived outside of Middlesex, but inside England when she was born.
• He had a daughter called Anna Maria
