Could well be as Family Search has this:

Baptism:

Sarah Leckonby 20th March 1772 Inglesby  Yorks
Parents: John and Sarah Leckonby

Marriage:

Sarah Leckenby 24th March 1816 Terrington Yorks
Francis Bower

Although that would mean a marriage after the children were born!

Hi Jaime,

I think John and Sarah Leckonby had a son John born about 1784 in Swainby, which is Whorlton.  He married Hannah Chapman 1813 Kirbymoorside
