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

[dobfarm]

Not necessarily so: as George or his parents could have put the money up but just need another male name of good standing or trader to act as bondsman. In some cases the bondsman was later  the best man at the wedding as part of his duties as best man protocol to the wedding licence.

My niece got married by an archbishop special wedding licence with a mountain of paperwork, neither of them were church goers, had lived in sin for 6 years before, my niece had with other chaps before that and the biggest load of twaddle  of paper pushing I have ever known.

Something I recall my Grandmother (Hood) saying as a young man was that a forename had been taken from previous Hood generations.

I have tried this with my father's names and I have tried it with my Grandfather's and his brother's forenames and her claim makes no sense at all.

However, if I go back to the boys names of my 2 X Gt. Grandfather George Hood (born Selby 1847, dying at 16 De Montfort Street, Leicester, in 1885) it will give in the following order:-

George (my 2 x Gt. G. Commercial Traveller & Leather Merchant & Victualler);
John (my 3 x Gt. G., the Tanner of Selby);
George (my 4 x Gt. G. married 1815 Selby); and his mystery father as
William or Herbert Hood?


I've set out all the known children of my 2 x Gt. Grandparents George Hood and Cecilia ...

Children of George Hood (d.1885 Leicester, Son of the Late John Hood of Selby, Tanner) and Cecilia Hood nee Westley

Edith Mary Hood, born 25 Sep 1875, Lorraine Villa, The Fields, Wigston, Blaby, Leicestershire, 
Baptised Selby Abbey 26 Dec 1875.

George Percy Hood, Abode Leicester,
Baptised Selby Abbey 17 Jun 1877.
George Percy Hood, buried Belgrave, Leicester, 14 Aug 1877, Abode Belgrave, Age 6 months.

John Sidney Hood, born 24 Aug 1878 at Melton Road, Belgrave.
Baptised Selby Abbey 15 September 1878, Abode Belgrave.
 
Family information is that John Sidney Hood went with Brother to South Africa and joined the South African Infantry. The Haute Avesnes British Cemetery (New), Report gives 2 Bn South African Inf. No. 4556 Cpl S. Hoods [later amended to Hood]. Family information refers to an action near Arras 12 April 1917, he was removed and died at a Field Hospital. CWGC gives death 14 Apr 1917, age 38, Son of the late George and Cecilia Hood of Leicester

Next of Kin, Miss Edith Hood, 143 Rockingham Road, Kettering, Northants.

Henry George Hood, born 13 Jul 1880 Carlton Hotel, 23 Granby Street, Leicester, Father George Hood, Licensed Victualler.
Henry George Hood, of 13 Meyrick Road, Stafford, England, died 31 Oct 1943. Widow was Jean Hood (according to family information after leaving South Africa Henry George Hood went to Australia and married Jean).

Grace Cecila Hood, born 26 Mar 1882, at 17 New Walk, Leicester.
Married George Taylor, Manager of Clothiers Shop, (Grace Cecilia Taylor).

William Herbert Hood, born 9 Feb 1884, at 17 New Walk, Leicester.
Married. Died 1942 in Leicestershire.


I am now wondering if the other forenames Percy; Sidney; Henry and one of the two others have come from Cecilia's (the mother's side) of the family.

Hello All

Thanks dobfarm.

This 1810 Will of William Hood of Kingston upon Hull you have found, was interestingly proved in the Lincoln Consistory Court.

The three I already have for William are Abstracts of the Wills of:-
William Hood of Heslington, proved 1807;
William Hood of Hull proved 1808 (York);
William Hood of Faceby 1811.

Seems the 1810 LCC William Hood of Hull, Will, you have found is probably a different Will according to the Proved date.

It is cheaper for me to order a Copy, than pay for research time according to their email reply (which has omitted to send me an Order form).

So emailed back, saying I'd like to order a copy.

Regards Mark

Hi

Cockins of Luddington Lincs, have been touched on before by Jomot, but maybe worth a second look.

In trying to find something about the Thomas C in your post I came across this marriage by Licence.

Thomas Cockin (aged 24 and of Luddington, Lincs.) and Margrit CHESTER (18 a minor of Hatfield) married at Hatfield 17 Aug. 1796

Both signed
Witnesses: Mary Hutton, Thomas Chester and Robt. Cockin

Wonder if there is a family link with Chester Newby's mother Hannah Newby nee Chester ?

If the burial of Hannah I've found is the correct one in 1839, her entry in the Death Duty register reads Hannah NUBY of Carlton, Snaith Yorks. .... Wm Mitton, Stamford Lincoln.

William Mitton bn Snaith 1789 son of Henry & Mary Mitton nee Eadon.

************
When Richard Gibson married Eleanor Wainwright in 1792 one of the witnesses was a RICHARD GOLTON a tailor ( son of a Richard Golton of Wistow).  Richard Golton (the witness) had a son Richard in 1779 who married an Elizabeth Perkin ( father Thomas Perkin of Berwick) c1803.

In 1812 Richard GOULTON bn 1779 was buried in Selby , a ELIZABETH GOLTON a widow married CHESTER NEWBY 1814

Hello

On page 9 of this thread, there are two images from the 1839 Selby Rate book. Relevant image below.

One of the 1839 images indicates that George Hood was one of the occupiers of part of the Anchor Inn, Church Hill, Selby, premises, owned by the Batman's [Bateman's?] Executors in 1839.

There is some information here (p.35 on another thread, from link below) how the Bateman's fit in to the Wilkinson's and Hood's and Dobsons ...

Anchor Inn, Selby

1822 Baines Directory
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/WRY/Selby/Selby22Dry.html
Anchor, Ann Bateman, Church Hill


Been searching in the newspapers "Anchor Inn" and found:-

1) 3 July 1828 Leeds Intelligencer an Edward Wilkinson, aged 78 of the Anchor Inn, Selby, has died.

Is this Edward Wilkinson, also linked to the same John and Mary Wilkinson who also have the Mary Ellen Hood born Selby links in the Census to Mary Ann Bateman (married Thomas Duckworth Dobson), which could explain George Hood's link as an occupier to part of the Anchor Inn premises?

Or

2) However, three years before 1839, in 1836, there was a Mr Fowler, Anchor Inn, Church Hill near Selby, when it was offered to Let.

Mr Fowler may have been a Tenant himself, simply sub-letting the Anchor Inn, or does Mr Fowler also have links please, to either the:-
a) Bateman's or
b) does Fowler also have a link to Hood?

Thanks Mark

Two Edward Wilkinson births c1750

Edward W son of William bapt. 1750 Kellington

Edward W son of James (NC baptism) in Cleckheaton ( born Birstall 1752.

Edward Wilkinson aged 29 married Margaret Twist 1781 Selby by licence.

One of the baptisms of the Bateman children list 'Edward Wilkinson, Innkeeper' as father of Mary Bateman nee Wilkinson.

So seems likely given ages and occupation from the records found that Edward W that died in 1828 is the man above.

Quick look at Fowler - can see a birth in Caistor, Lincs of a Bateman Fowler in 1896 - a possible link ?

Regarding the Anchor Inn, Church Hill, Selby, there was a Bateman-Wilkinson family link, from your comment ...
One of the baptisms of the Bateman children list 'Edward Wilkinson, Innkeeper' as father of Mary Bateman nee Wilkinson.

More confirmation it seems of a Bateman - Wilkinson link and we know George Hood's Son James Hood and wife Sarah Hood (nee Arundel) and Mary Ellen Hood (born Selby) were linked, to Wilkinson and Mary Ann Bateman.

Probably doesn't help with George Hood.

 ---------------

Kellington is closer to Knottingley and Whitley, than Selby.

Samuel Hirst diaries (of Kellington, born Cridling Stubbs) mention a George Hood.

George Hood in the Knottingley Land Tax of 1813, occupying a property of George Wilkinson.
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=758380.0

Chester Newby 1815 Hood=Russell, Marriage Bondsman, born Whitley / Kellington.

I was also just wondering if George Hood, Knottingley, (if the same George as George Hood of Selby), his Son James & Sarah Hood (nee Arundel) might be linked twice (separately) to the Wilkinsons?

 ---------------

The transcribed Register of Manfield, Yorkshire, has a Ralph Hood & Elizabeth Fowler 29 November 1761, but the transcription has the signature Ralph Wood, so it is unclear if the marriage is Hood or Wood.

[..claire..]

The Dades registers for Edward Wilkinsons children also confirm his father as William (Innholder of Selby) and by Jane his wife.

I'm checking again for any birth of Edward in Selby - I can't see one.

The baptism in Kellington 1750 list parent abode as Whitley.
He also has a brother born 1748 called William

I cannot see a marriage for William & Jane - there are some but not sure of the geography to be honest

[..claire..]

The image of the marriage is online and Ralph signed his own name - it is certainly HOOD by my reckoning.

Can't add the image as yet, but will do so later unless someone else see's this post.

Marriage by licence was witnessed by what looks like church officials.

EDIT: Looks like Ralph H's first wife died - in Feb. 1764 he was getting married again to a Mary Bussey - again by licence and with consent of parents.

Followed by two children - John bn March 1765 and Mary bapt. March 1766
