So how does that Sarah Robinson connect to Francis Robinson born c1810 Mytholmroyd, who is presumably uncle (as his widow is aunt) to the children of Sarah Robinson and John Steel?

Ilkley would be a lot more convenient to Addingham where Sarah married, than Mytholmroyd, which is given as Francis Robinson's birthplace in census 1851, when he has his nephew, Sarah's son Joseph Robinson Steel living with him .

Baptism for John Steel 1801 and marriage to Sarah Robinson in 1828 already posted earlier in this thread, and image of baptism sent by pm.

This seems to be the correct baptism for Francis Robinson:

However West Yorkshire baptisms just say Mary:

West Yorkshire, England, Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1512-1812

Name: Sarah Robinson
Birth Date: 25 Jun 1808
Event Date: 10 Jul 1808
Event Type: Baptism
Parish: Ilkley
Mother's name: Mary Robinson

The image does state mother was a spinster, but her name seems to start Mary and then have another 3 or 4 letters. It might even be that one name was written originally, and then overwritten and/or corrected to Mary. Maybe someone else could take a look?

I have now found this baptism for a Sarah Robinson in the non conformist records at Mytholmroyd , with the same parents as Francis Robinson.

It's my belief that this must be the Sarah who married John Steel in 1828, as her and John Steel's son Joseph was described as nephew to, and living with, FrancisRobinsonl born c1819 Mytholmroyd in census 1851, and her son John Steel jr was living with Francis's widow Amelia in census 1861, also described as nephew:
