Hi Mark
Down stream family connections through marriages are usually a couple meeting by chance.
Evelyn Hood Marshall (a descendant of George Hood via his Son, John Hood of Selby, Tanner / Fellmonger) married Thomas Grubb descendant of Maudland (nee Hood) Turner in 1906 marriage .
Only connection of John Hood mariner died 1819 Selby of Scarborough to George Hood cooper 1812 of Wren lane Selby is the first meeting by chance a century later of descendant couple Evelyn Hood Marshall and Thomas Grubb married 1916
In my view !

( In that drama " Woman of substance" Emma Harte from being a maid for the rich Fairley family mill owners, till Emma left them and built a wealthy empire herself, she hated the Fairley family later she acquired the Fairly family house from a gambling son losses and had the house pulled down brick by brick also the land grassed over as a park for local folk.
About 50 years later Emma gathered her family to reveal the contents of her Will before she died
- her granddaughter engaged boyfriend surname was a Fairley family descendant - Emma's family thought she would have excluded her granddaughter out of her Will knowing how much Emma hated the Fairley Family
Emma asked her granddaughter one question- Where did she meet her boyfriend - on a bus said the granddaughter - Emma said - Oh ! a chance meeting - she said and put her in her (Emma's) Will. )
