Hello Jomot

Thanks, there was a fire on board and an explosion. I had found an account (extract and engraving attached), looking for Quarter Master J. Hood in a list, nothing found yet. There were wives and children on board too.

I was just scrolling through early All Saints records looking for Caleb (didn't find him) & stumbled across this - it could be wishful thinking on my part but I read it as

Buried 12 Oct 1762 Margaret d/o William Hood, Cooper (page 9):

Looked to see if I could find any baptism, and familysearch has this:

Wow, quite an addition to your family history if the connection can be confirmed (yes, I know, that dreadful "if" !!)

Thanks dobfarm

Looking for the list of casualties and Quarter Master J. Hood at the moment.

Lord Hood who brought the Commerce of Marseilles back from Toulon, must be a Captain. There was also an Alexander Hood.

Jomot  (Good find)

Can you relook at page 9 top of page is wrinkled up as Baptised not Burial top half of page

William Hood (Reed ?) a cooper is very interesting if you look at the top pf the page 9 right top ist says

Baptised 12 Oct 1762 Margaret d/o William Hood, Cooper (burials are underneath list in the bottom half of same column

Only Henry Todd waterman and mariner burial 12th October 1762

John son of William Hood (Reed ?) bapt 1 July 1753/4 All Saints Newcastle on Tyne

[..claire..]

FS transcribe surname as REED on Margarets baptism.

[Jomot]

Apologies, yes, it does say baptized in October 1762 - I obviously cant read my own handwriting

I couldn't decide if it definitely said Hood though, or if I just think it does because I want it to!

Whilst I was typing dobfarm & Claire have just posted too.  Is the 1753/4 online?

Added: Just checked FS and there are several children of William Reed, so probably need to check these to see if they confirm him as a cooper, in which case its another one to scratch out
