I'd forgotten about those posts ~ that's interesting reading dobfarm.

 Cockins, Pearsons ~ can this all be a coincidence ?

Just remembered -  Barnby-Upon-Don but can't remember the content much.


I'm wondering if these Holmes families were Quakers, as they seems to be spread about a bit around Doncaster which seems to be a pattern with Quakers in general (With distant abodes in England of couples in Quaker marriages and Wills) and the Casson Quakers ( Scarborough , Doncaster, Thorn, Selby and Derby areas)

[BushInn1746]

There is a marriage by Licence in 1771 in Maltby (the only one showing on F M P )

Philip Holmes of Thorne and Sarah HEPWORTH 26 Feb. 1771

Both signed
Witnesses: William Wasteney and John Jeweson

EDIT: Two baptisms for a Phillip Holmes. First one in Huddersfield 1748 son of Isaac - can marry this guy off, baptisms of his children and have his burial.

The second guy - baptism in Wath upon Dearne 13 September 1768 aged 17 years (bn1751) ~ no parents listed.

Can find one possible baptism of a daughter Mary in THORNE 1772, father Philip a flax dresser. Then nothing in Yorkshire: possible baptism of daughter Elizabeth in Lincolnshire.

...

And this marriage 12 June 1830 after Banns at Hatfield.

William COCKIN of Snaith married Ann ROBINSON

He signed she left her mark
Witnesses: John ? ? ? and
William COOKE.

I think it says John Hopworth or Hepworth

Hello All

Yes, John Hepworth, so Hepworth with possible links to William Cockin and/or Ann Robinson.

Internet search ... "Henry Mitton" Snaith Hepworth

https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&gws_rd=ssl#q=%22Henry+Mitton%22+Snaith+Hepworth&start=0

gives documents mentioning Hepworth, with Snaith and Henry Mitton.

Seems the book by Boaz is attempting to link a William Hepworth to Henry Mitton, Maltster, Gentleman of Snaith.

George Hood and Henry Mitton, Maltster of Snaith
One of the Wren Lane, Selby Deed Registrations of 1833 for a property of John Clarkson of Newport in the Parish of Eastrington to George Hood of Selby Brewer (neighbouring a property of the Hon. Edward Robert Petre already in George Hood's occupation), indicates John Clarkson George Hood and Henry Mitton of Snaith County of York have signed the Release, regarding the transfer to George Hood.

George Hood diversified into Brewing between 1824 & 1826 (per occupation in children's baptisms) and may have been in business with Henry Mitton, before he purchased John Clarkson's property, occupied by Henry Mitton's Malt-kiln in Wren Lane.


Whether Cockin - Hepworth - Mitton - Hood, are partly or wholly linked or related to each other, or partly business ties, remains to be discovered?

Regards Mark


EDIT
Forgot I had posted this for someone else ...

Leeds Intelligencer - 31st January 1803

"A few days ago died, aged 76, Mrs Hepworth, mother of Mr Cockin, dissenting minister, in Halifax."

Thanks for all the comments.


Telephoned re Philip Holmes Will and told I would have to email & wait for an estimate first (email sent).


Hoping Holmes Will, will at least mention running Richard Gibson's former business, or George Hood himself.


Also got Cooke as a Witness to the attached wedding.


Think I can see a crack forming in George Hood's Berlin Wall hiding his secret past!


Claire's info attached re Hannah Newby. William Mitton of Stamford, Lincolnshire linked to Hannah Newby's Will?

A George Hood property registration mentions Henry Mitton of Snaith Gent, now of Stamford.


George Hood probably an Independent, Church probably wouldn't bury him and he didn't have the Quaker Burial by Quaker Birthright, due to him being a non-member at burial.
