Hello Richard and All
Quakers moved to support other Meetings, so that would explain a 'roving commission'. Yes, also spelt Arundale, at Selby.
Selby Church, 15 August 1803, Jane the Wife of John Hood of Selby, Mariner, aged 65 was buried.
Selby Church, 4 April 1819, a John Hood aged 82, abode Selby, was buried (no occupation).
Maudland Hood married Charles Turner and her Hood descent is given, when the Turners daughter was baptised Selby in 1795.
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=731922.0George Hood (marr. Selby 1815) could be Son or relation of John Hood,
or not?
Do you have any family documents as to why James Hood went to Sunderland or Scarborough, did James Hood have any Hood or family (ancestors) at those places?
