Aged 60 when died
There are no baptism records for an Isaac Smith near Bradford around 1753 (if aged 60 when died), the nearest being Northowram and Ovenden (both North of Halifax). The Non-conformist Northowram baptism shows William Smith, father of Isaac to be from Clayton, which is very close to Allerton (only about 1.5 miles south).

General Notes
Isaacs father was the son of William Snr. His oldest brothers William Jnr and John were a witness to his marriage.
The family came from Clayton, but after Isaac married, he farmed at Allerton, and at the time of his death had accumulated considerable property.
In Isaac's will (Feb 1813) he left his estate to his son William and money in trust for his three grandchildren, John, William and Thomas Smith.
Isaac died at Allerton, but its not clear where his farm was. His Nephew had the farm at Moorside, and Isaac's may have been Ackroyd Farm (near manningham).
