Who is JAKE HOOD, linked to Hood of Selby - Any help please?

[BushInn1746]

...

George could be Son of John Hood of Selby, the Mariner, who may have had a 'liaison' with a lady in another town or Port. Nothing confirmed about Jane Hood wife of John the Mariner (buried Selby aged 65 in 1803) and where she came from, yet.

Hello Claire and All

Although we know John Hood of Selby, Mariner, came from Scarborough (see Charles and (Maudland nee Hood) Morland Turner's first daughter baptised 1795 Selby) and John Hood was 82 yrs when he was buried Selby 4 April 1819, we never established who Jane Hood was, nor where she was from?

A John Hood and Jane Newby 1793 marriage at Scalby was suggested, but I thought they were still living there after 1819 (in Census).

Also a recent burial found suggests a John and Jane Hood were at Scalby in 1794, when Alice was buried, but our John Hood of Selby is in the Selby Land Tax.

Any ideas who Jane Hood of Selby was, wife of John Hood, mariner, please?

Regards Mark

The John and Jane Hood in Scalby baptised a son George in 1798 and a John in 1807, so definitely a different couple. And I think John Hood the elder does appear in a census, I've looked at this family before.

Thanks Claire

Reference to a John Hood of Scarborough, in the December burial of James Son of John Hood of Scarbro' in the Old Malton Register in 1781.

I believe I have this James Hood's will transcribed, which I'll post tomorrow.

So a link with one John Hood of Scarborough to Old Malton.


Margaret wife of John Hood buried 12 Sept 1785 Old Malton.

Possible marriages  of John Hood aged 28 born c1707 by Licence. Residence parish: Old Malton. Bride: Jane Marshall of Pickering aged 29.

Married: 21 August 1735 at Old Malton.

Edit: since that last marriage have found other marriages in New/Old Malton of John Hoods 

1730 John Hood to Grace Marshall - New Malton.

1742 John Hood to Elizabeth Eaton - Old Malton

*****
And this marriage at St Laurence Snaith - have this couple been followed through

John Hood married Ann Whitehead of Rocliff on 7 December 1736

Suppose George was not baptised as a infant or older child but got baptised especially for the his Selby marriage months before May 1815 as an adult in his parish of birth.

Hello All

Thank you, Claire and dobfarm and anyone checking stuff off board.

John Hood of Selby, Mariner, (formerly of Scarborough) married Elizabeth Leppington (Widow of John Leppington and a John Leppington was buried Scarborough St Mary's 17 July 1762). Elizabeth Leppington, Widow was nee Elizabeth Spencer, so this is how Rootschatters got Elizabeth Spencer the mother of Maudland Hood baptised Scarborough 24 December 1775 and by using the Descent in the Selby Register of 1795, when Maudland Turner's (nee Hood's) first daughter was born.

EDIT: Also for the above to work out per documents, John Hood of Selby, Mariner (formerly of Scarborough) must have married the mystery Jane after 1775 (the Birth of Maudland Hood) and before Jane Hood's Selby burial in 1803.


Because John Hood, Mariner, then of Scarborough married with an Allegation and Bond AND Jane Marshall's John Hood of Pickering, a Bleacher (so wrong occupation, not a Mariner) also has a surviving Bond which he signed, I got the paperwork and also felt John Hood's signatures (below) did not match either, so Jane Marshall definitely and probably Jane Newby (married Scalby 1793), are out of the frame for the mystery Jane.

So not only do we have a mystery George Hood at Selby with no burial, we also have a mystery Jane Hood, who cannot be nee Jane Marshall.

So somewhere John Hood of Selby, Mariner (formerly of Scarborough) has married a mystery Jane (born about 1738)?

So not only do we have bother with my ol' George Hood, but Jane Hood, wife of John Hood of Selby, Mariner (formerly of Scarborough), is a mystery woman in my life too?

John Hood of Selby (formerly of Scarborough) being a Mariner, could of married Jane anywhere, assuming they were actually married. But I also wonder if the mystery Jane Hood (buried Selby 15 Aug 1803, aged 65) might be George's mother who in 1785 would be about 47 years old?

Regards Mark


Note: We discovered that there were a few John Hoods of Scarborough all Mariners, marrying (mid to late 18th Century).

Signature of John Hood, John Hood & Jane Marshall, 28th March 1765 Marriage Bond.

Signature of John Hood of the Parish of Scarborough aged 25 and a Batchelor Mariner 6th December 1763 Marriage Bond, to Elizabeth Leppington of Scarborough aged 26 and a Widow.

Sorry if this has been touched on before but is there concrete proof that the John Hood in Selby per land tax and buried there with wife Jane IS the man from Scarborough who is the father of Maudland Hood.

Are you saying (Mark)

With both George and Jane origins  and no marriage found to John Hood being 3 mysteries.

So mystery Jane Hood (Nee Unknown) buried 1803 maybe she never married to John Hood but  possible George Hood d 1845 was her son, thus George could be baptised illegitimate in Jane's maiden name and later taking John Hood's surname being the illegitimate father of George.

Sounds viable

~~~~~~~~~~~~

or

Was John Hood father of George Hood a one off single entry baptized 1786 Gateshead (date of bapt exact to his known age b 1785/7 and father named John ) the same John Hood (origin of Scarborough) husband mariner of Jane Hood buried 1803 Selby

Highly very likely (George had a son married Scarborough)

R Gisbon's dad lived Newcastle
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Was John Hood the same John Hood (origin of Scarborough) who married Elizabeth Gibson 1779 Newcastle (need to check bond allegations signatures)  Likely - (Ports) Having an affair with Jane (widow Slipper ?) or later shacked up with Jane after Liz Gibson died.

Very likely

or a mix of above ports ('Ferry across the Mersey' - Mersey being the North sea with John Hood  )
