I am looking for information on the births/christenings/marriages and burials of all Bramah/Brammah/Bramma/Brammer families in West Riding of Yorkshire for the period from 1730-1830, in and around Sheffield so that I can try and determine the connections between the different family members and trace the lineage - among others - of Thomas Bramah who married Hannah Taylor in Sheffield in 1822. I have their family information from that date to the present. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

As there are a large number of entries for the surname Bramah - 66 entries for baptisms in Sheffield alone, the earliest being 1718 -  I would suggest that you access FindMyPast in order to extract them.  One-month subscriptions are available, or perhaps your local library has access (assuming you live in England or Wales).
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.
He/she who never made a mistake, never made anything.
Archbell - anywhere, any date
Kendall - WRY
Milner - WRY
Appleyard - WRY
