note, place of abode as identifed by vicar is "Redhill" rather than Dewsbury, Batley, Ossett etc -

Can't find his baptism.
It is possible that the Joshua b 1704 (whom I have as Joshua's father) is actually the spouse of Sarah Fearnley - but, that would mean he was 87 when he died, not impossible but quite unlikely. - There are other family of wilans having children at the same time, but no obvious Joshua's born at this time. For now I'm going to leave it as it is -
