Yorkshire is not my neck of the woods, but I would have said that these are two entirely different John Hardistys who coincidentally both marry women called Grace.
Grace Fawcett can be followed through in the records and if spinster meant single woman, then she was single at marriage.
As your Grace married nearly two years after she conceived Jonathan, I would have said his father's first name was Jonathan - but goodness knows what his surname was.
