William Sykes & Family

[genealogistsykes]

I'm still slightly perplexed as to the origins of William Sykes.  We can agree that he married Betty in 1782 in Sandal Magna, and Ann in 1796, but his birth is yet to be confirmed.

If indeed he was born in West Bretton, I can't seem to find his father's marriage.  Also, there is a William Sykes, born in 1746 to Samuel Sykes in Sandal Magna, does this not seem more probable owing to William's place of marriage, death, and the fact that his father is 'Samuel', the name of his son.
