Ignore first paragraph Dobfarm beat me to it 
Burial of Richard HOOD in the parish of Sutton 30 Dec. 1838, abode: Jennings Street, Grove aged 64. There was a marriage in Sutton 1817 of a Richard Hood to a Elizabeth Barrett. Looking at the 1841 census Elizabeth is by herself with three children, William, Sarah Ann and Susannah. From one of their marriage certs their father William was a mariner it would seem.
I have looked at some trees and they seem to verify these records ~ but not the parentage of Richard.
There seem to be two Richards born within a couple of years of each other, one born in Leven son of Richard and Susanna who thankfully was still alive in 1851 and had a birthplace of Leven, so I should think that this Richard may be the one born Osmotherley.
***************************************************
There is also a baptism of a WILLIAM HOOD in Scalby 17 Apr 1774 son of John Hood ( possible marriage of this John in Scalby 23 Nov 1762 to Jane DICKINSON). This couple had a son John who married Jane Newby 1793 who we have discussed on the threads before.

EDIT: There is another RICHARD HOOD. This one was born 1773 in Bishops Wilton son of Charles. 
Hi
Thank you Claire.
Yes the John Hood and Jane Dickinson marriage surfaced with me again, only a few days ago too. I was wondering who the heck was Jane Hood, Wife of John Hood of Selby, Mariner [John Hood late of Scarborough], Jane Hood being buried Selby August 1803, aged 65?
The Jane Dickinson = John Hood marriage is too early, as the descent for Mordland Turner's (nee Maudland Hood's) first child at Selby indicates John Hood of Selby, Mariner, married Elizabeth Spencer (Leppington Widow) first.
dobfarm had noticed that Sarah Richardson (born Selby per Census) was of Sculcoates on the John Hood, Tanner of Selby 1846 Marriage Certificate ...

EditsThe origins and/or some of burials of these early 19th Century Hoods of Selby are shrouded in several mysteries

We are working on snippets of fact, with gaps / missing paperwork?
Or is the Hood - Spencer lineage wrong in the Selby Register in 1795
but it fitted so well (see also next post)?
