I believe Abraham Stubley was the one baptized on 8 April 1737 at Otley son of Thomas of Burleywoodhead, clothier. I would point out that this is the ONLY Stubley entry in these records. There is nothing to suggest that this Thomas, who was a clothier, was born, married, had children or died here. Abraham's age would fit with that of the one who married Noah Eastwood in 1757.¹

Again this is the ONLY Stubley entry in these records. There is nothing to suggest that this Thomas was born, married, had children or died here. This Sarah's age would fit with the one who married in Batley in 1758, but for whom I cannot find a baptism there.
