Interesting that the attachments also mention, Thorne, Mordecai Casson, Curtis, etc., discussed before and that
some family CASSON diaries were claimed to be burnt.

Interesting, an Ann Conway, servant in the house of Mord'i Casson, at Thorne, in the 1841 Census.
One in my line born Hannah Mary ... Anna Mary Hood, 27, of Selby, daughter of John Hood, Tanner, married John Conway Curtis, 26, in 1878, at Selby, Yorks, son of Samuel Brunyee Curtis, Accountant.
Present as wits: Clara Richardson Hood ; George Lowther Curtis.
Goughy was on to Conway Curtis and
Claire found this:-

My family called her A. M. Hood of 291 Camberwell Road, London. But Goughy discovered at 291 Camberwell Road, London, her surname was not Hood, nor Curtis, but Anna Mary Grove.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Signature of James Cockin who married Mary Torr in 1791 at Thorne, looks similar to the one on George Hood's 1815 Marriage.
More like a Thorn in the flesh.

My late Grandmother suggested something similar to Incest [Consanguineous] had gone on somewhere, but she was stopped from saying anymore, as I was a boy and too young to hear such things.

Some notes were added to a family Copy Will outer and Will we have, notes copied from a TNA document (RG 6/866) ; the 1786 Scarborough Register and William Hood's 1851 Marriage.
