Occupation Interests / Re: Captain John Hood, Ship "Brothers" London-Selby-York (possibly from Scarborough)

Hello Dave and All
Baptisms
B & W of Gateshead, B.T.
Colour - Gateshead Register, unfortunately no more detail for any of the events.
1786, 30th September Hull, list
I think we may have looked at the nearest sailing before in the paper, to the Gateshead baptism, as I already have the 1786 Hull list for 30th September, published 3rd October.
(Second line up from the bottom).
John Hood went to London, in a vessel called "Jane", which might belong to Staniland
One vessel called "Jane" in the Payments Book, appears to belong to Jonathan Staniland & Thomas Staniland.
I know we looked in the Master and Vessel indexes for the Muster Rolls for the "Jane" and a John Hood, but there was no listing, but each Muster Roll usually covers a period of months, or even years.
We could only find Thomas Staniland (Master) of the "Jane" in 1789.
In 1788, John Hood of Selby, was Master of the "Centurion" from Petersburgh and his previous vessel was noted in April 1788, as the "Aid" of Captain Prince, which has since been checked and no John Hood, so Hood's time as a crew member on the "Aid" was too short for him to appear in the Muster Roll of the "Aid" which we have obtained, by a paid search and digital image.
We never saw any wife, female, nor children named with a crew in any of these Muster Rolls (in the three volumes seen) which must have been about a 1,000 pages in total.
Payments Book
We didn't photograph all the Payment Book pages and there might be more than one vessel called "Jane" using Hull, in the mid 1780s. I was primarily interested in the vessel called "Industry".
However, the vessel names I & J, might also go onto the adjacent pages, either side of the page photographed, so I will order images of all vessels beginning J, in the Payments Book.
England & Wales Census
In the 19th Century where the crew were on a vessel on Census night in the England & Wales Census, I noticed in the 1871 and 1881 Census accompanying family were named.
