I am trying to find information on Robert Nicholson born circa 1748. He married Elizabeth Haselgrave on May 6th 1754 at Brotherton Parish Church. I know they had three children Elizabeth born 1768 in Peckfield, Jane Nicholson born 1770 in Peckfield and WIlliam Nicholson born 1774 in Peckfield.

Wife Elizabeth Haselgrave was born 1748 in we beleive Saxton-In-Elmet.

A family bible provides the date of marriage as well as a search on familysearch.org however I am struggling to find any information on Robert or his parents, besides that he was a cordwainer.

Son William married Sarah Dodgson and had 12 children while daughters Jane and Elizabeth are believed never to have married.
