Birth of Sarah Waterhouse in a submitted entry in the IGI in 1759 in Calverley, Yorkshire, parents Joseph Waterhouse and Susanna Keighley. Another submitted entry gives her birth in 1759 in Owlcoates, Yorkshire, and another addes her parents Joseph Waterhouse and Susanna Keighley and death in July 1761.
There is also an entry in the Pedigree Resource File for Sarah Waterhouse born in in 1759 in Calverley, Yorkshire, parents Joseph Waterhouse and Susanna Keighley.
There is no entry for her birth or christening in the Calverley Parish Records (which has the statement "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. Other versions that appear on the IGI site and elsewhere, bear little resemblance to these records."), but there is an entry for the burial of Sarah Waterhouse, daughter of Joseph of Oalcoates at St Wilfrids Parish Church, Calverley on 29 July 1761.
There is an entry in Ancestry Public Member Trees for Sarah Waterhouse born about 1759 in Owlcoates, York, parents Joseph Waterhouse and Susanna Keighley, her christening in about 1749 (sic) and death in July 1761. There are four other entries which just gve her birth in 1759, parents Joseph Waterhouse and Susannah Kighley.
She may have been born much earlier than 1759 as she is a daughter, not an infant, which may imply an age of over 5 years, and this would put her birth before 1755 when the records are incomplete.
There is an Owlcotes Hill NW of the church and an Owlcotes Road between B6154 and A647 in Pudsey which is in the parish of Calverley about 6 miles west of Leeds.
Sarah Waterhouse was Felicity's fourth great grandaunt.
