Hi
Thank you Claire
Back to
STEARS of Bewholme (same family as Frances Stears, the Witness on Maudland Hood's 1794 Selby marriage), this Benjamin BARRON (1803 STEARS Marriage below) apparently had links to CLEMENTHORP and Parish of BLACKTOFT, Yorkshire, where there were also COCKINs.
HORNSEA MEETING 1803 [Bewholme is 3 miles from Hornsea]
Certificate of marriage between Benjamin BARRON of CLEMENTHORP and ANN
STEARS of BEWHOLME (from an archive description - not seen).
This Barron (1794 - 1867) was a Quaker
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Barron_WiffenThere was a George COCKIN at Blacktoft and Clementhorpe and Staddlethorpe and Sandholme, begining to wonder if George Cockin had links or dealings with QUAKERS?
I have just looked at the 200 year old, Dickinson - Cockin Deed for Staddlethorpe and Clementhorpe. Barnard Dickinson; Joseph Dickinson; George Cockin and John Peirson have all used the same unnamed Seal.
I don't know yet, if I'm onto something, or nothing, about George Hood's origin.
We also have, who we believe is the Clerk, John DICKINSON, witness at George Hood's 1815 Wedding, perhaps he might be related, other witness James COOKIN.

The 1802 Selby property Deed for the Dwelling house (divided into two), part occupied by JOHN HOOD in Millgate, Selby, is no hovel, it has an orchard.
John Hood of Selby Mariner, whose Daughter Maudland Hood has witness Frances STEARS a Quaker at her Wedding to Charles Turner in 1794.
JOHN HOOD of SELBY buried April 1819.
Just say for instance he inherited property in Scotland, I wonder if a Will for him, or Jane Hood, is listed at the Scottish Registry?
Just a few thoughts.
