BumbleB, none of the above, I've lately been looking at East & West Ardsley (Woodkirk), Morley and Farnley (Nr Leeds).  I will check out the existence of churches in those parishes for the period I'm looking for, thanks for the tip.  Will also check out WYAS site.

Just posting this link to a new message (thank you BumbleB) about additional Yorkshire records on FindMyPast so that people previously interested in the topic may get a reminder

James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.
