Hi L,

Please note we do not use II or other names in the suffix field. Please see the guidance here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:England_Project_Profile_Standards#Names

We'd appreciate it if you could correct this thanks.

I believe he is actually the brother of Jacob and not the son of John. There is no record of a son John born to Jacob's brother. More likely the John baptised 28 Jul 1611 in Heptonstall, Halifax, Yorkshire, England is the man who married Joanna in Woburn and was the father of her 7 children.
