Christening of Susannah Kighley in the IGI on 13 March 1724 in Calverley, Yorkshire, father David Kighley. The same information is in Ancestry England, Select Births and Christenings, 1538-1975. The same information is in the Calverley Church Records adding her father was a clothier of Farsley.
There is also a submitted entry in the IGI for Susanna Keighley born about 1724 in Calverley, Yorkshire, father David Calverley, and her marriage to Joseph Waterhouse on 3 June 1747 plus two submitted entries for her birth in about 1723 in Pudsey.
There is also an entry in the Pedigree Resource File for Susanna Keighley born about 1724 in Calverley, Yorkshire, father David Calverley, and her marriage to Joseph Waterhouse on 3 June 1747.
Entry in Ancestry West Yorkshire, England, Church of England Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1512-1812 for the baptism of Hanah Kighley on 13 March 1724 at Calverley, St Wilfrid, father David Kighley. "March 13 Sufanah Da: of David Kighley of Farfley Clo". This is a continuation of a previous page that is missing, but after March 24 is Births in 1724 so I assume this is 1723 Julian, 1724 Gregorian.
There is a submitted entry in the IGI for the marriage of Susanna Keighley and Joseph Waterhouse on 3 June 1747 in Calverley, Yorkshire.
There is an entry in the Calverley Parish Records for the marriage of Hannah Keighley and Joseph Waterhouse, both of Calverley, on 3 June 1747.
The June 1747 entries for Calverley in Ancestry All West Yorkshire, England, Church of England Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1512-1812 do not appear to have been indexed but the following original entry was found: "June [...] 3 Joseph Waterhouse and Sufanna Keighley both of this parish by banns".
All the children were christened at St Wilfrids, Calverley, but the mother's name is not in the parish records although it is in submitted entries in the IGI. I cannot find entries in the parish records for Joseph, Sarah and William. The following note is attached to these entries "The original Baptism register for the period 1748 to 1755 is very confusing. Entries are very hard to interpret, some entries are duplicated in different years, the dating is unclear and the condition of the register also makes the period difficult to decipher. An added problem is the changeover of calendars which took place on Jan 1st 1752, but which the vicar of Calverley seems to have adopted two years previously. The records here are the exact entries that appear in the register. Other versions that appear on the IGI site and elsewhere, bear little resemblance to these records."
Her husband was buried on 15 December 1776 in Calverley but died in Pudsey.
