The Mystery Mrs Hood from Scarborough Arriving Leamington Spa 1872?

[..claire..]

Hi

Been looking at the family

Mary Anns parents were born and bred in Beeston - John Hodges married Ann Asher by Licence 1799 in Beeston. They had two children - Mary Ann 1802 and William born 1800, he died in 1801.

James Hood was born in Loughborough 1777 son of James Hood and Elizabeth - this couple married in Loughborough in 1772 - James Hood and Elizabeth Chapman. The marriage was witnessed by Mary Greene and a Stephen Hood.

Not sure what the relationship is between Stephen and James (father), still looking.

Stephen Hood born c1747 - was a widower when he married by licence in 1777 (bride: Sarah Shepherd)
Can't find a first marriage for him or his baptism.

CHEMPAT: I too saw this family in the census and saw the unfortunate name L(e)abia, rather ironic her mother Mary Ann was a midwife

In that newspaper cutting where it says (Scarborough), none of the other people have a place specified.  Does anyone else from the longer list, or from other papers/searches?

Has she just been for a holiday, taken the waters, smelled the sea air, whatever she wanted to do, and there is no other connection?

Hi Chempat

Yes, the others in the General Arrivals list could be looked at, to see if they were local to those addresses at Leamington Spa, in the 1871 Census.

No other place name in that list.

"Hood, Mrs (Scarborough), 1, Clarendon-place" is either:-
a) visiting Mary Ann Hood at Leamington Spa, or
b) Mary A Hood returning from visiting a relative or holiday, in Scarborough and dying.


There is a suggestion Mrs Hood was of Scarborough and this might / might not be the break, I've been looking 19 to 20 years for. I'll let you know.

Regarding that George Hood of Derby and of Clayton and Company Nottingham, dissolved in 1811, business partner John Clayton might possibly be related to Mary Hood of Nottinghamshire (Will 1795 Proved at York)?

NOTE: The place in the Mary HOOD, May 1795 Will, Proved York, transcription into the Register has been spelt both Walkingham County of Nottingham and Walkeringham.

Walkeringham is in Nottinghamshire, between Gainsborough Lincolnshire and Doncaster Yorkshire.

In 1809, probably the same George Hood of Derby was part of Sylvester and Hood, Manufacturers in Zinc, (Charles Sylvester and George Hood).

Hello

William SURPLICE of Radcliffe on Trent Nottinghamshire, described as my relative in the Will (Proved 1873) of Mary Ann Hood, of Leamington Priors, who died August 1872, (Widow of James Hood dying 1863) of 1 Clarendon Place, Clarendon Square, Leamington Spa.

For anyone researching George Evans of Leamington Spa, Grocer, in one of the Codicils, he was being removed from being an Executor Trustee, as he was about to leave for the "Principality of Wales".

Charlotte Rowland now residing at Nuttall, Nottinghamshire was mentioned.

Her Housekeeper was Catherine Sampott and Manservant Samuel Hicks.

Her friend was described as the Reverend Robert [?]ukey Saunders of Hunningham Warwickshire Clerk.

J. S. Stockdale - Jno: Stonier} Clerks to Mess'rs Clarke Rothera & Carter Solicitors Nottingham

Witnesses Second Codicil
W. Cursham of Leamington - John Powers, Leamington

Proved at London 25th February 1873 by George Bell Rothera and Willoughby Willey


Her Death Certificate will hopefully confirm who was present at death.
