WOOD family in Knottingley and Hunslet

[SallyF]

Hi Jo,

Not cheeky at all!  Feel free to join in.

As it happens, I transcribed all the "Wood" entries for Jim, so it would be no problem to forward them to you, too.

If you pm me your e-mail address I'll send them straight away.  I listed them chronologically, using Excel, so if you have Excel you should have no problems with them.

When I get a minute I'll look for the other surnames you mention, but it could be later on this evening, after the home from work/school rush is over.   

Be back soon,

Sally

I also notice that you have Shaw in your lineage , my grandfather William married Susannah Shaw , she was born circa 1875 in Hull, Her father was also a William.......any link ?

and

I should have read the earlier message properly from SallyF , so I don't need to send you the files   

                                                         Jim

  WOW

I'm overwhelmed by your responses - thank you so much 

Sally, again, thank you - I will pm you once I have sent this and yes, I have excel 

Sheila, thank you to you too  - here's what I think:
Eliza Fozzard - most definitly mine

Joseph Wood - I'm not too sure about this one, the parents are right but I only have his father (John) as a labourer in the census returns. I have siblings of;
William c1835
Thomas c1837
John c1840
James c1842
Mary c1849
Robert c1855
if that helps to prove anything further!

Thank you for the marriage details of John Wood and Mary Peel  What does OTP mean? Is there any further info, ie dads?

The baptism of John Wood is too close to call  I have no further details back!! How would I go about working out which one is mine?

Jim, I wonder if there is a cousin link? Maybe Wood is just to *common* to assume so but who knows!!

My Shaws are:
Rose Hannah, Goole 1855 (GGgrandma)
George 1830, Lincolnshire (GGGgrandad)
William c1800, Not Known (GGGGgrandad)

Thank you all again 
Jo

Really glad you found this Sheila,  I was starting to get worried.  There are several references to Fozzard in the St Botolph records, but I hadn't found Eliza. 

I had the same problem with Jim's Wood's, plenty of references at St Botolph's, just none of them his......   Perhaps Christ Church records might be where they're hiding.

Jo, if you need anything else looking for, just give me a shout.  If you want what records there are for the Fozzards etc, I'd be happy to list them for you.
