 John Scutt married Susannah Boothroyd in Whitgift near Goole - some 50+ miles from Almondbury. The marriage has John as a widower but both are 'of this parish'.

Susannah was baptised in Whitgift 11 Jun 1758 d/o Daniel. It looks as though he had a couple more children baptised in Whitgift: Mary 1760, William 1762 then moved to the Halifax area and went nonconformist with , Daniel 1766, Sarah 1768 and Joseph 1770 baptised at the Independent Chapel, Warley near Halifax.

Daniel Boothroyd married Ann Foster 14 Nov 1754 in Whitgift both of this parish.

You'd then expect Daniel to have been baptised in Whitgift or surrounding area but there is the baptism in Halifax 16 Feb 1734. So, maybe he left the Halifax area to live and/or work in Whitgift but then went back between 1762 and 1766. Perhaps Ann died and he moved back and remarried?

Then there is a baptism in Elland, near Halifax 3 May 1702 s/o John. No Daniel baptism in Almondbury and no father Richard!

ADDED: FindMyPast have a marriage 2 May 1723 in Halifax between Daniel Botheroyd and Ann Heblet!! Unfortunately, there's no digital copy of the entry to look at.
HELP!!!

 BATHSHEBA BOOTHROYD bn c. 1802 W. Yorks.

Baptism nowhere to be found. Possibly in a nonconformist church near ALMONDBURY or HUDDERSFIELD.

Ann dying and Daniel moving back to Halifax a very likely scenario as there is a marriage in Halifax 8th April 1765, between Dan Boothroyd, weaver, Warley OTP and Sara Scholfield, Warley OTP which fits perfectly with the location and dates of the second batch of children.

Good one, Lesley! So that would make Sara nee Scholfield Daniel's mother not Ann nee Foster.

Progress!  ;D

John Boothroid married Phoebe Hopkinson in Halifax 25 Jul 1699, both of Elland.

These are John's children I've managed to identify with Elland baptisms (all with father John and abode as Elland):

18 Feb 1699/1700 Grace and John (marked as 'possible twins') John buried 28 Feb 1699/1700

Phoebe, wife of John Bothroyd of Elland was buried in Elland 28 May 1700 but I haven't yet found a remarriage but there are more children:

3 May 1702 Daniel
20 May 1706 John
24 Jul 1709 'Jer' (which I assume is Jeremiah)
7 Mar 1711/12 Phoebe
