The copy for this folio is very difficult to read on my edition !!  Some are clearer than others I think - maybe someone else could have a look....but I can add a little

They lived at - St Anne's Road, Kirkstall
Jonas' occupation is unreadable - could it be Joiner?

son William - too - possible begins with S

There is also another son...after Jonas 13......Can't read the name - may start with J also....looks like he is 13 too ???

I think Ann, Jonas & this boy are all 'Piecers'.

And all were born in the county

(By the way - You should be looking in West Yorkshire - rather than North Yorkshire !)
