Comment . . . Samuel certainly married someone named Ann, and the only possible Ann seems to be Ann Burnett. But what was he doing down in Sandal Magna? Adel is north of Leeds, but Ann came from a village which is south of Leeds, near Wakefield.
Ann HEARFIELD == Thomas DOBSON
Ann's baptism | 5 November 1740: Ann d. of Samuel Hearthfield of Arthington bapt. | Adel PR |
Marriage | 5 November 1759: Thomas Dobson, husbandman, m. Ann Hearfield, spinster, both of this parish (Banns) by G. Gowndril. Witnesses Mark Pullein, James Pullein (OR Samuel Hearfield, Wm Metcalfe) | Spofforth PR |
Comment . . . I came across a note on the Ancestry UK site suggesting they had three children (Sarah, Martha and James) and that Ann died of consumption in Spofforth in 1795, but I can't confirm this.
Mary HEARFIELD == John GREAVES

Marriage | 5 April 1768: John Greaves, husbandman, m. Mary Hearfield, spinster, both of this parish (Banns) by Henry Nicholson. Witnesses: Wm Metcalfe, Thomas Dobson | Spofforth PR |
Comment . . . The Greaves family website includes this couple. It seems that they had at least 6 children, and that John Greaves was born (IGI says, baptised) on 8 February 1733, at Spofforth.
