George Hood Burial where? Died Selby, Yorks 18 September 1845 Part 1

[dobfarm]

I assume you got the Will of the micro film at Borthwick if its in the volume book- If one orders a copy of the original Will in the bungle, there could most likely be additional papers with the Will from probate. Though unlikely anything on his burial place.

There could be solicitors records with his funeral paperwork

With all that wealth in the Will ! it sounds as though there should be a head or flat stone memorial in a churchyard to go in fitting with George's status.

 If he was buried at the Abbey ? there was a big massive fire at the Selby Abbey in 1906 that could have destroyed headstones with falling debris. Also the 1847 savage Selby flood.

'a' mean he was not short of a bob or two.

"He appoints an Arbitrator, his friend, Jonathan Hutchinson of Selby, Merchant, to settle any disputes".




As a bit of an aside (but enriches the info on life of George), Hutchinson's were a well known Quaker family and his son went on to be Sir Jonathan Hutchinson, a famous Surgeon

Because, the double checking of the September 1845 Selby Burial Register has drawn an absolute and definite blank now, I was going to consider the Quaker angle.

However, after your post Goughy the surviving Quaker records are now a must, so I'll email the archive concerned (noted it somewhere) and make a specific request with date for an estimate to check and have copies of the Quaker records, this will substantially cut down / cut out blind searching fees.

Yes, two Hoods in the early 18th Century / 1700s were Surgeons at Selby.

The 1844/1846 George Hood Will is not a wrapped bundle type. They had a Brewhouse, Yards, Workshops, Outbuildings and "Messuages or Cottages". I have the 1822 and 1835 Street Directories. They were occupiers at Wren Lane, when large parts of the town were offered for Sale in a number of Lots in 1835, so George must have purchased at the Auction.

Many thanks, Mark

Though its all very interesting but what are your objectives in finding the burial of George and the church graveyard ? just for a family tree or hope of finding new indicating info or confirming known info in the search of George's parents.

Cooper, tanners, brewers etc, are trades that needed apprenticeships or family taught trades in a family business or a bought business with skilled trade workers. Property deeds, land registry or tenancy agreements all needed records and sometimes needed solicitors or their clerks etc.

People can be owner or tenant occupiers of property

Hello BumbleB

"Jane, wife of John Hood of Selby, Mariner - buried 15 August 1803." Hope it is on Ancestry, as I should like to get a copy.

Thank you, very much for that new information about Jane, as I don't have that burial, but I have a John Hood being a Master (noted down), of a Boat which did sailings from Selby to other English ports.

In answer to dobfarm, I am really trying to discover George Hood's birth/ parentage, but sometimes graves give a birth date, give unknown family members and associated records occasionly give a little more info.

In the past, records which are usually insignificant, occasionly reveal little gems. Until they are viewed, one never knows.

Thanks Mark

Thinks its time to look at deeds: as may show George's daddy named of deeds at Gowthorpe tannery or copper shed on Wren lane pre 1822 or pre 1819  ( Maybe John)
