When I sent you the Cemetery plot plan, you will see the 3 Hood graves are in the same area as the Standering/Burton/Richardson graves. If you remember I noticed it when a colleague was sharing his research on the Standering/Burton family. I'll ask if he'll email his findings (I did listen to his presentation but got distracted when he put up the cemetery plan!)
I haven't yet made a connection between your Mary Burton's (who marrried William Russell) father Edward and the Burton's who married into Standering family (i.e. Mary Burton married Thomas Standering in 1826) Edward was a wheelwright, and if I remember on the searching I did last year when he died he was a wood dealer (can't remember which thread that would be on)
Hello Shirley and All
Regarding John Hood, Sarah Hood, daughter Annie and a Richardson, graves near those of Standering & Burton.
I was aware my 4 x Gt Grandfather, George Hood, also brewed beer in Gowthorpe, Selby, circa 1832, (besides his Malt Kiln business at Wren Lane, Selby). Hood's Gowthorpe brewery appears to have become the business of Mr J. Burton by the 1870s:-
Hood's Yard, Gowthorpe, Selby, YorkshireSelby Local Board of Health (From newspapers)
1874 September
Plans were also submitted for the
alterations to a Malt Kiln in Hood's Yard, Gowthorpe.
1874 October
The Plans submitted by Mr J. Burton for the errection of a Malt-house at Hood's Yard Gowthorpe, were again returned for amendment, as they did not meet the requirements of the Local Government Act.
1879 July
Mr Smith, Bricklayer, attended on behalf of Mr John Burton to ascertain if the Board would require plans for the conversion of some piggeries into a cart and straw shed, in the Nag's Head yard, Gowthorpe. The Board considered this would be a decided improvement.
Standering and Burton When Standering & Burton became a Limited Company in 1882 ( Company No: 17608; Standering and Burton Ltd. Incorporated in 1882), the following was published in December 1882:-

The Brewery was behind the Nag's Head Inn, Gowthorpe, Selby (according to an internet site) see John Burton c.1877 - 1881 :-

See next post for information about the Licensees' of the Nag's Head Inn, Gowthorpe, Selby, Yorkshire, 1861 - 1890s.
In the 1851 Census it is difficult to determine the Nag's Head (pubs unamed), but Sarah Hood, 56 yrs in 1851 is near several premises occupied by Innkeepers, in Selby.

I had something in my mind regarding the Standering surname as though the name was familiar and didn't know why.
