George Hood 1815 Selby Marriage - James Cookin / James Cook in W

[..claire..]

The James Hood in my posts was a baker - from a transcript of a baptism of another son Alexander Young Hood born c1810.

When did he die ?

I have numerous deaths in the GRO index but no online burial records for him or Isabella.

Well you finally got what was seeming an impossible to find task = George's burial place

Keep at it as Claire says George came from somewhere also where did he picked up his talents in early life, Quakers had to go part secret up against the established church, no wonder documents are hard to find and George could have been a swinging pendulum over his faiths. His spouse Sarah Russell's religion ? and maybe his parents had different faiths-one a Quaker

Best wait till Mark gets a better higher resolution image of the seal and then use enhance programs. Those cracks in the image and the spacing of the thought word Coo are not equal spacing if that crack is closed in the double 00. Though say we call it "the stand back long view" of that poor image and Mark's rope & bird images do seem match.

That writing at the top is unreadable even after enhancement. 

It beggars belief how this seal will find George Hood parents or place of birth or baptism but one never knows

Considering Mark's dad says their Hood's were Scottish origins and George's trade Cooper/ Brewer/Tanner/Grocer of booze (Wife & son).

I'm working on

Hull (Hessle) Griffin Breweries Cow lane -James Hood  1846 a Scot from Dumfries

https://www.sites.google.com/site/hesslelocalhistorysociety/hessle-s-history/hessle-in-1879

William Hood a cooper Hull dad Richard Hood d 1838


and a John Hood Ship Inn publican 1780's Gateshead ? and Geo Hood bapt 1786 Gateshead dad John Hood

Maybe the Gateshead George schooled and brought up in Yorkshire if John Hood publican (maybe born Scottland) moved pubs/inns to Yorkshire or moved to Gateshead from Yorkshire George born in Yorkshire but baptized in Gateshead (from or too Hull ?)

(Bear in mind George Hood d 1845 was a brewer)

The Leeds Intelligencer Dec 9th 1793

Notice here given
Leeds and Halifax turnpike road
That the tolls arising at the said several toll gates, will be let by auction to the best bidder at the house of Mr John Hood the Talbot Inn, in  Bradford

[..claire..]

Now that is a good spot dobfarm

Keeping with the alehouse/inn  theme

In 1773 and 1778 a James HOOD appears in Alehouse Licences, possibly the same man. In 1773 Whitley he appears in the column " suretees and sums they are bound in". In 1778 in Shadwell he is an innkeeper

Battle of Bradford
Bradford Court House occurred where the newly elected Bradford Poor Law Guardians were meeting.

This group then made for the Talbot Inn


http://www.closedpubs.co.uk/yorkshire/bradford_bd1_talbothotel.html
This building replaced the original Talbot Hotel which dated back to 1677

The Talbot Inn must have been near the court house in the centre of Bradford  which maybe the Talbot Hotel today


There should be plenty of document bumph

[..claire..]

Not many BMD's of Hoods in Bradford in that timeframe at all.

Do you think this John Hood had another profession as well as being an innkeeper ? There is one baptism:

Sarah bapt. 25 April 1790 Bradford Cathedral, father JOHN a mason.

Thank you Claire and dobfarm (your reply appeared since)

Link to Young, interesting.

John Lionel Hood

Also found that Mrs Hood the wife (Mayoress of Newcastle) of John Lionel Hood was given a tureen to mark the birth of their daughter Theodosi [think I've also seen it spelt Theodosia].

On the reverse was the "Arms of Hood" but cannot find a description of these Arms anywhere!
