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

[..claire..]

The only marriage I can see for James Hood is in 1762 in Snaith. He was a schoolmaster and married a widow Clary Ranby.

I'm sure we've had this before - her name seems familiar

A spurious web site was showing what appears to be my George Hood ... in the results.

Both Google and also my pc are giving me a warning, that by proceeding the site may harm the computer.

Happy surfing, but please be careful!

Hi

dobfarm, re Quaker Burial slips - George Hood's 1845 burial age is the same, 60 years. Claire has traced a contact.

Hopefully awaiting a reply (off-board) regarding those Casson papers.

Not being a Quaker, but buried by them, suggests he had broken away from the Church.

I believe in one of the three Selby histories (1800 by Mountain; Baines 1822/23 or Wilberforce Morrell 1867) it mentioned that there was a family at Selby with their own Chapel, but only their family went to services there?

Thanks Mark

EDIT
Wells Hood, Wine & Spirit Merchant of York, (baptised I preume?) at Dunnington Church 1795, had Daughter Lydia Hood baptised 1832, York Lendal / Jubbergate INDEPENDENT, per IGI.

So Wells Hood seems to have changed to Independent too, or his wife Ann was an Independent?

Just wondering if I've ever seen Wells Hood's 1821 Marriage witnesses, at Leeds St Peter.

Any Witnesses to Lydia's Baptism and if so who were they please?

[..claire..]

No witnesses noted in any of Wells and Ann Hoods children's baptisms.

Witnesses at the wedding of Wells Hood and Ann Bowers

James Bower, possibly Jos'h Bower and Elizabeth Hood

Thank you Claire

Presume Wells Hood's 1795 Baptism at Dunnington was a Parish Church affair?

Regards Mark

[..claire..]

Yes Wells Hood was baptised in an Anglican Church.

A quick look at Bower suggests a family headed by a John & Mary baptised numerous children in an Independent Church ~ which do include an Ann c1802.

Richard Hood 24 of Stamford Bridge and Elizabeth Williford 20 of Scarborough got a marriage licence on 23 Apr 1794.

If the above Elizabeth Hood (nee Williford) was still alive, she could be one of witnesses at Wells Hood's 1821 Marriage, at Leeds St Peter.

EDIT: According to Goughy, it seems Elizabeth Hood was dead long before 1821 ...

"Burial of Elizabeth Hood wife of Richard 6 March 1805 Catton

And then there is this Marriage Licence:

Richard Hood (B 1772) residence Stamford Bridge License date 7 April 1810 intended place of marriage St Lawrence York to Charlotte M Abel residence York 

Burial of Charlotte Margaret Hood burial 1840 Catton

Looking at Census returns Richard Hood born 1772? (Seed & Wine & Spirit Merchant)  is married to a Caroline Helen!  Richard's birth place is given as LEVEN, Yorkshire.  Caroline Helen died 1871.  Richard buried Catton 27 March 1862 "

End of Quote.

From your reply Claire it either looks like Wells has changed faith OR the Bower family influence on Wells Hood's wife, has caused their children to be baptised as Independents.

 --------

George & Sarah Hood of Selby, had their last child Sarah Hood baptised in 1835 in Selby Abbey Church. Between 1835 and 1845 something has prompted George Hood to switch religion.
