Hi Edward A fairly random search of a couple of West iding batch numbers for the late eighteenth century revealed 10 Squires in C007495 (Halifax) and 16 Squires in P018302 (Wakefield). I have a number of Squires among my BEDFORDs, BERESFORDs and WEBSTERs in Midgley and Skircoat. A couple more 'titles' not previously mentioned occur in my distant BRADLEY relatives in the mid nineteenth century in Almondbury parish, where there are Doctor BRADLEY, and his brother Colonel BRADLEY, (living not too far away from Cicero BRADLEY and his brother Demosthenes!)
