He was run over by a wagon, poor chap.

Very little other information available.

Thank you Nell. He made wagon wheels so I guess he was squashed. :-[

He does not appear in the Coroner's Inquests, so presumably died a natural death. 

Did he live in Hooe?  Was he a shopkeeper? There is a probate inventory for this man (ESRO ref  PBT/1/10/3079 - see https://www.thekeep.info/collections/getrecord/GB179_PBT_1_10_3079) dated 14 March 1755. 

What sort of information are you looking for?  If you have access to Ancestry (your local library may have this), the inventory can be seen there.
