The records office for Market Weighton would be at Beverley.
If you are looking for anything before 1837 you wont find these on
FreeBMD nor Ancestry. Records prior to this date will be at Beverley or
on the IGI.

Hi Lynda,
I don't have a paid subsricption to Ancestry...........too expensive for me,
but I do use it free at the Library quite often. I shall have to check
again for this time period. I know they only have the BMD's that FreeBMD
have transcribed so far. And yes I first found James LAWSON 's baptism on
www.familysearch.org but there is no marriage on there of his parents.
As you live in Market Weighton could you please tell me where would be the
closest record office I could get in touch with?
Many thanks for your suggestions as I need all the help I can get with this
brick wall.
Cheers,

need help. My 3x gr. grandfather James LAWSON was buried in Market Weighton,
age 28, on June 28, 1815. This is all I know of him, other than figuring out
he was born cr. 1787, but I don't know where. His wife, Sarah (I think
LEWIS, but am not 100% sure) must have been just pregnant when he died as
she gave birth to a son, James Posthumous LAWSON, bapt. Feb. 21 1816 in
Market Weighton, father stated as being James LAWSON an Ale House Keeper. >
