Birth Notes
Probably one of these two:
Name: Rebeccah Sykes
Abode: Thurstin
Occupation: Shallooer (maker of bed fabrics)
Event Date: 24 May 1767
Event Type: Christening (Baptism)
Parish: Almondbury, All Hallows

Adobe: Wood Bottom
Occupation: Clothier
Event Date: 28 Jul 1771
Event Type: Christening (Baptism)
Parish: Almondbury, All Hallows
Father's Name: Jonathan Sykes
Assume this is the correct one, if Wood End and Wood Bottom are the same place.
There's also a Rebecah Sykes born in 1754 with correct spelling, but probably too early (unless she married at age 36).
Rebeccah's father was
Jonathan Sykes and her mother was
Mrs Jonathan Sykes. She had a brother and a sister, named
James and
Lydia. She was the youngest of the three children.
