Try the family search site to locate marriage/baptism for Charles,
for baptisms of Charles and Sarah's children - plenty of those

https://familysearch.org

Ancestry has West Yorkshire baptisms, marriages and burials for the time period if you can access (many libraries have access if you don't yourself). Images of his children baptisms appear - as early as 1811 at Bradford St Peter's (Bradford Cathedral)
