You seem to have forgotten that you've already asked for this information a few days ago so I've merged the 2 threads to avoid any more needless duplication and confusion.

This is the 3rd time you've started a new post looking for this William Sykes. I've now merged this latest one with the other two. Perhaps you need some sort of reference system to keep track of your posts to avoid any more duplication  :-\

Found all details:

William Sykes
b.1755 - Yorkshire
m. 1782 - Sandal Magna, Yorkshire
d. 1802 - Almondbury, Yorkshire

Betty / Elizabeth Depledge
b. 1752 - Yorkshire
m. 1782 - Sandal Magna, Yorkshire
d. 1852 - Almondbury, Yorkshire

Think the parents of William are: Samuel Sykes and Mary Rhodes but can't seem to find the marriage on familysearch.org (the new and old site) and also FreeReg.

Please can someone help me?

I have an Elizabeth Depledge in my tree. Mine was baptised in Sandal Magna on 22 April 1753 d/o of John and Grace Depledge. I believe they were John Depledge and Grace Askin who married in Sandal Magna on 30 Jun 1745. John might be the one baptised on 26 Dec 1720 in Sandal Magna s/o John and another Grace. I have found a marriage for a John Depledge and Grace Jepson on 24 Sep 1717 in Sandal Magna. The marriage record says that John snr was of Bretton.

I haven't researched Elizabeth, my direct ancestor is her brother William. But I haven't found that she died young or as a spinster, so that's a good sign.

Lanark: Scott (soldier went to Jersey CI)
Jersey: Fowler, Huelin, Scott

I've just rechecked my notes on John Depledge / Grace Jepson and scan of marriage, it looks like Bretton was an error for his origin, but I think some of their children were baptised there.

(All my older records still in a bit of a muddle as they had to be recovered from the hard drive of my old dead pc and transferred to new one in a hurry. Somehow some of the file names truncated to 8 characters.)
