    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).

    The first two children were baptised within 10 days of their birth, so its assumed that Isaac was also baptised quickly.

He died at the age of 59 in January 1813 in Bingley.  His burial was on January 12th, 1813 at All Saints (Bingley).³
