Too many to choose from on NBI

Far too many Sarah Fearnleys born c 1720 and baptized in Birstall to choose

and now I'm wondering if she was not born a fearnley but was married into the Fearnley becuause one of the marrige records sugget 'widow'

Sarah married Joshua Willans, son of Joshua Willans and Unknown, on 1 Apr 1745 in Dewsbury, Yorkshire & Yorkshire (West Riding), England.¹ (Joshua Willans was born circa 1725 in Yorkshire, England, died in 1792 and was buried on 21 Feb 1792 in Dewsbury, Yorkshire & Yorkshire (West Riding), England ².)
