Thanks Kath, I found some records on family search that were close to what I was looking for and these showed Jonathon b 1682 he fathered Jonathon born 1713 and his son was William born 1749 but another one shows John 1734 who married Margaret and they appear to be William born c 1749 parents! Is it my age because I cant get my head round whose father is who. Most of the family seem to be from Hutton Cranswick in Yorkshire - 2 later relatives born 1827/8 were from Leeds

Without looking anything up, Jonathan seems more likely.
John would only have been about 15.

But not impossible.

Where in Yorkshire?

Help please - various spellings of the name ESKRIETT I need help with Wiiliam Eskriett born c 1749 - I am not sure if his father is John born 1734 or Jonathon born 1713. Both were born and lived in Yorkshire. Any help would be appreciated Thanks.
