If the baptism is correct, Ancestry is linking the parents to this marriage

Name: John Barratt
Spouse: Elizabeth Tendell
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 13 Oct 1805
Parish: Parish Chapel, St Pancras
Borough: Camden
Register Type: Parish Register

The witness - Thorn & Noughton? - might be proffessional witnesses rather than relatives. Marriage certs this early don't give occupations or father's names.

If, and a big IF, relevant then one would expect Robert W to have a number of siblings.

Who does he name as his father on his own MC?
