Hello dobfarm and All
Re 16th Aug 1846 Sculcoates Marriage of John Hood, Tanner in the Parish of Selby and Sarah Richardson (now online), it must have been a 'shotgun marriage' as George Hood (my 2 X Gt. G.) was born 31st January 1847 at Selby (to the above couple) and have GRO Birth Certificate (not baptism).
I think the shame back then likely forced their marriage away at St Mary's, Parish of Sculcoates. There is no Father's name, nor Occupation (GRO full Certificate and no newspaper announcement), but the Witnesses were John Richardson and Hannah Richardson.
John aged 41 and Sarah Hood aged 66 above were buried Selby Cemetery in 1860 and 1886 both in grave 1531. Cemetery opened abt 1858.
George Hood aged 37 the farmer of Byefield and Bondgate, Selby, was buried January 1862 and William [his son] 24 year [should be month] old son "Son of Ann" in burial register, July 1862, both in grave 615. Seems Ann Hood widow went on to remarry, becoming Ann Knott (traced in Census by son Charles Hood, son aged 2 in 1861 and 12 years in 1871, both born Selby).
Son Charles Hood born Selby 1858 became a Railway Signalman with three children born Castleford, Yorkshire by 1891. Charles wife Hannah Hood was born at Hirst[?] and Emma Hirst a "Visitor" and Married was born Ledsham, Yorkshire and aged 57 in 1891.
George Hood (d. 18th Sept 1845) "Disease of the Heart 18 months certified", got no other information.
Burial place unknown.
George Hood's widow, still called Sarah Hood at death (nee Sarah Russell) dying Selby aged 86 years 28th November 1879 at 11 Gowthorpe, Certificate says "Senile Decay certified by Joseph Todd MRCS" & "Jane Hood Daughter in Law Present at death Selby".
Sarah Hood - Burial place unknown.
