Is anyone able to help please.

I'm searching for more info on Isaiah Jabez Smith b. 1784 Yorkshire, who married Hanna Rea b. 1798 aldborough Yorkshire.
They had a daughter, Harriet b.1832. she married Edward Rawlinson of Ropsley, Linc's.
Trying to find Isaiah's parents, and I believe Hannah's parents were Thomas Rea and. Ann Longhorn.
I'm struggling to find a birth record for either of these two or their parents.
If anyone can help, it would be most appreciated.

Baptism records are all that you can hope for..........and going that far back, you may find it necessary to visit the relevant Records Office

Please say which sites you have accessed, to avoid duplication of effort

There seems to be no Genuki page for Ellerby which would give you dates available.

You could try the EastYorkshireFHS who may do a search for a small fee.

Edit: could the Isaiah baptism be the one at Swine in 1785. Father John
