Hello All
I am really researching my ancestor George Hood a Tanner & Brewer (d. Selby 1845) and looking at possible places as to where he may have originated and hope to see the Manor of Selby records soon.
Wells Hood and Richard Hood
Recently, I purchased a receipt (featured), from Wells Hood of White Swan Yard, Pavement, York, to a John Dickinson. The 1851 Census for Micklegate, York, has a Wells Hood aged 56 Wine and Spirit Merchant born Dunnington and other information (British Newspaper Archive) also mentions premises at Mint Yard, York. It also seems Wells Hood is linked to Stamford Bridge. He served on the York Council and apparently was an Overseer of the Poor.
I have discovered he was linked to Richard Hood of Stamford Bridge a Wine, Spirits and Seed Merchant.
The 1851 Census for East Stamford Bridge for Richard Hood gives his age as 78 years, a Wine & Spirit Merchant born Leven Yorkshire, which is near Catwick. His wife Caroline Helen Hood aged 56 was born Castle Howard.
A couple of days ago, I made a chance discovery in British History Online that William Wells devised the Manor of Catwick to a Richard Hood, sounds like Richard Hood of Catwick is linked to the above characters.
Marriage paperwork of one Richard Hood, mentions Scarborough.
From British History Online
"(fn. 48) In 1764 Joseph sold the reunited estate to William Wells, and it had passed by 1787 to Well's devisees Richard Hood and his brother William (d. 1852). (fn. 49)"
May be (fn. 48) or (fn. 49)
http://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/yorks/east/vol7/pp255-261#anchorn49
I have yet to recognise all the references and see which footnote applies.
Despite Manorial records being protected. Also apparently banned from being exported and checking the Manorial Register, there is no listing for the Manor of Catwick, suggesting they might be in private hands, or amongst Solicitors records.
If anyone can shed any further light on documentation for the Manor of Catwick circa 1770s to the 1860 period and especially if there is a Hood family tree somewhere for the above, it would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Kind regards Mark

A William Hood is on the register of electors 1834 for Catwick (from Genuki link KG gave). He might be the one who is mentioned as dying in 1852
-
This William Hood is on 1851 census for Catwick, unmarried age 80 born Leven as well.
added
Death duty register mentions Richard Hood of Stamford Bridge - probably means he was executor - looking a likely brother.
-
Removed, as repeated previous bits! :-[
-
Richard Hood 24 of Stamford Bridge and Elizabeth Williford 20 of Scarborough got a marriage licence on 23 Apr 1794.
Marriage on same day, but says spouses father's name was William Hale (bride's surname still given as Williford) and her residence was York.
Unfortunately both transcripts on FindMyPast.
No mention she was a widow and seems a bit young to be widowed at 20
-
He is likely to be the Richard Hood bapt leven on 9 Aug 1771 s/o Richard and Susanna.
Same couple bapt William on 26 May 1769 at same place, so confirms they are brothers. Can't see any other brothers but several sisters, staring with Grace and Susanne both on 12 Jan 1762. Only transcripts, doesn't say that they are actually twins. There is a Susanna in 1778, so likely the first one died young, unless they named two daughters with almost same name.
-
And Richard Hood married Susanna Drew at Catwick 31 Jan 1759
-
I'm not sure how this fits in with your George Hood living in Selby in 1841.
added
was he the George who married Sarah Russell at Selby Abbey on 18 July 1815?
His age stated as 28 wit James Cockin (BT says Jane) and John Dickinson.

Hi
Thank you very much for all the replies.
I have got bits and pieces from newspapers about Hoods at various Yorkshire places and just looking for a few more details re Hood of Catwick / Leven. I agree, seems little to link to my George Hood.
Re John Dickinson signing the 1815 Selby Marriage Register, I seem to recall he was either:- signing others, or worked at the Registry Office.
But Jane Cockin is of interest and I have started collecting notes re the surname (Cockin's at Doncaster; Fishlake; Huddersfield; Holmfirth; Halifax; Landholme, Par. of Eastrington; Cowick (but later); Clementhorpe and Staddlethorpe, Par. of Blacktoft and Fockerby). Only one Jane Cockin, who would likely be too old by 1815 - doubtful), but this Hood information will do for the moment, thank you.
Place any new Cockin info here please:- http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=747759.0
Kind regards, Mark

Richard Hurd and he's a grocer.
Hello BumbleB
Thank you, this Richard Hurd is the very same Richard Hood.
Although I was after the witness spell check, your snippet view has answered an earlier thought:-
a) regarding Stamford Bridge being in the Parish of Catton and
b) looking in my notebook earlier I noticed the spelling variants of Hood amongst Borthwick records, up to late 18th Century.
Hood; Hudd; Hodd; Hode; Hord; Hurd and Hird possibly arising from pronunciation differences.
Regards Mark

Is it the witnesses to the marriage you want ?
No William Hale
Witnesses: Susannah Hood
Ann Rudd
George Stockton
and James or Joseph Huntriss
Last witness forename is abbreviated - can't tell what it is

AND I WILL believe, because that is what it says, that this is the parish register, rather than the BT's :P
The handwriting is identical in each entry :o :o
-
Thank you.
Silly me ...
dobfarm was referring to the witnesses on the Marriage Intention/Bond. These won't always be the same as the witnesses to the marriage.
One thing, except Hood, the other marriage witness names are not familiar to any found in my research.

Unless dobfarm has been to York to view the Bond and Allegation (or you have obtained a copy), then there is no evidence of the "witnesses" to it. There is a transcription via FindMyPast, but it gives very little information and it does not indicate the names of those who supported Richard Hurd in his application for the bond.

Sorry.

No William Hale

Ann Rudd

William Hale was the father of Elizabeth Wiliford giving consent on the bond allegation as Elizabeth was only 20 and not full age.
There was no mention of witnesses. On bond allegations its usually only the bondsman and the intended grooms signatures (or under age minor - a parents signature) and rest are officials signatures. (no witnesses)
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NXC1-WQB
Why the surnames of Elizabeth Wiliford and father was called William Hale is a ? need to see the original bond allegation- Ie, Widow or born illegitimate to a Wiliford mother with father called William Hale
-
Wonder if he was a stepfather or something ? There aren't many Willifords about at all. Or Hales for that matter .
There is a Thomas Williford (surgeon) who marries a Judith Bell in 1768 Scarborough. Marriage licence states he was from Bridlington. There is one child William baptised there in 1770. Cannot find another Williford baptism in Scarborough or environs. Although an Ann Martha Williford marries early 1800's born c1785.
1779 Judith Williford dies, Thomas dies 1791. Judith's father was a wealthy man -
" Bell, John – Scarborough – (Will dated 1776 & Codicil 1779) – noted 1812 Certified copy of the Will & Codicil – wife Elizabeth, daughters Ann Bell, Dorothy Bell, Henrietta (w/o Nicholas Piper), Judith (w/o Thomas Williford), Elizabeth (w/o John Hebb), son Thomas Bell, sister Ann Woolfe, brother Daniel Bell (York). Details of large number of properties in Scarborough include several Inns & a Coffee House and a number of Farms in Yorkshire including Newby, Throsenby, Scalby, Warthill & Helke."

...
The 1851 Census for East Stamford Bridge for Richard Hood gives his age as 78 years, a Wine & Spirit Merchant born Leven Yorkshire, which is near Catwick. His wife Caroline Helen Hood aged 56 was born Castle Howard.
...
B. Richardson v. Hood, and Others
On the Trial of this ejectment before C. B. Thomson at the York Lent Assizes 1816.
It seems that the Testator T. Richardson had left his estate situated at Stamford Bridge, Yorkshire to his Wife Hannah Richardson.
"The Lessor of the Plaintiff was the only Son and heir-at-law of the testator; Hannah Richardson, who had survived the testator, was lately dead, having by her will disposed of all her real estates at Stamford Bridge aforesaid, and the Defendants were the devisees under her Will, and tenants in possession."
The main Defendant was HOOD and what I am interested in please:-
a) are the names of all the Hoods mentioned in the Wills of T. Richardson and Wife, Hannah Richardson?
b) any Richardson and Hood link (Marriage etc.), by 1816?

Hi Mark
Both Thomas and Hannah's Wills are held by the Borthwick unfortunately.
Worth noting in Hannah's case - after Thomas H died she married twice. Firstly to William Quarton and again to William Hessel. He survived her and is named in the Death Duty register.
With William Quarton - looks like she had a son Joseph in 1803.
There was an Elizabeth Quarton born in Selby 1810 parents John Q and Susannah Thompson. They married in Selby 1809 - later children born in Hull. Thought I'd add as it seems an unusual surname.
-
Thank you Claire
Received the Will of Richard Hood of Stamford Bridge Wine and Spirit Merchant Proved 1862 by David Hill of York Currier (a friend) and Francis Taylor of the same City Bank Manager.
I had an idea Richard was related to Wells Hood.
Wells Hood and a Thomas Hood were actually Sons of Richard Hood. Also refers to his Wife Caroline Helen Hood as Caroline Helen Abel before his Marriage to her.
Richard Hood also refers to the Trustees of any Wesleyan Methodist Chapel in England ...
No reference to my Hoods, so posted for information only.

Any link please between Edward Burton of Selby (who married Sarah Daughter of William Silverwood of Wistow) and the William Burton of Kirkby Misperton?

Good Morning
Discovered another Hood link with Boroughbridge, Yorkshire.
In the September 1860 Diary of John Stubbs of Boroughbridge, he says how he accompanied Annie Hood by Rail to York, who was going to Leamington [Spa].
Anne Hood had a Boarding School for Ladies at Boroughbridge.
When I saw Hood, a Yorkshire place and Leamington together, I felt that she was likely to be connected to Wells Hood, former Wine and Spirits Merchant of York, because Anne Hood had a residence at Leamington Spa.

Hello
16th May 1815 George Hood's Marriage Bondsman - Chester Newby of Whitley, baptised Kellington, August 1790
Register says Chester So. of Thomas & Hannah Newby, Whitley.
Fortunately when his Brother William Newby was baptised at Carlton, Snaith 25th September 1788, it gives a descent:-
William Newby Son of Thomas Newby Butcher of Carlton,- Son of John Newby of Hurst Farmer, by Elizabeth his Wife.
Hannah Dr. of William Chester Farmer, of Whitley by Jane his Wife.
Traced both back and the only recognisable surname to a Hood is Barratt, (although not able to check if same Barretts as Hull) signed Elizabeth Barrat and appears in the 8th July 1760 Marriage at Kellington with Whitley of:-
John Newby & Eliz Barratt by Banns
Barratt / Barrett
1817 Richard Hood & Elizabeth Barrett, Marriage, Sutton in Holderness (near Hull). Richard Hood of Jennings Street, Groves, died in 1838 aged 64 years and was buried Sutton 30th December. When Susannah a daughter married, her Certificate confirms him to be a Mariner.
(The Richard Hood & Elizabeth Barrett connection was 1817 and about 21 months after George Hood's Marriage Bond, but perhaps the couple were already courting or together, to make the link).
Been looking at some Barratt Marriages at Hull and also one who appears to be a George Wiliford (misspelt), Labourer and Elizabeth Lowsely 30th January 1832, which also has the same Jane Richardson, witness.
All have a Jane RICHARDSON witness (3 attached of the 4 found).
----------
I am most interested in the way the capital R was formed in the surname Richardson and comparing them with my Sarah Richardson who married John Hood, Tanner of Selby, at Sculcoates in 1846 and also has two Richardson witnesses.
I have thought before that my Sarah Richardson's forming of the R was quite unusual and the Jane Richardson examples are similar chair shaped and looking like St or Sh.
I feel the link is probably Barrett - Richardson and Wiliford.
----------
Richard Hurd (spelt Hood elsewhere) 24 years, Grocer of Stamford Bridge and Elizabeth Williford, Spinster, 28 of Scarborough, married Scarborough 24 April 1794.
When Richard Hood of Catton Widower & Charlotte Margaret Able married in 1810 at York, the witnesses were Jesse Robinson, Jun[?] and Francis JEFFERSON
Also John Hood of Selby, Mariner (buried 1819 aged 82), has a handful of links in 18th Century Parish and Marriage documents to John and Richard Jefferson of Scarborough.

Hello
The 1817 Richard Hood & Elizabeth Barratt, Marriage was after my George Hood's 1815 Marriage Bond.
But how about this Marriage (seen image) and an earlier HOOD connection to Barratt ...
1796 Giles Bridgman of this Parish South Cave and Elizabeth Hood of ye same
by Licence, wits Wm Stather; Mary Swindale; John Barratt; Elzabeath Barratt & M Barrat [sic]
I'll order the Bond / Allegation (online listing suggests their Marriage was to be Snaith her Residence Parish?)
But, not certain if I have found any new HOOD relations.

John Richardson, Watch Maker, Residence Selby, Father was William Richardson Watch Maker [of Bubwith] and Brother of my Sarah Hood (nee Richardson) first married:-
1850 John Richardson & Elizabeth Hallewell, Spinster, at Beverley, wit's Mifs Hind and likely my John Hood [the Tanner of Selby, Yorkshire].
When John Richardson, Watchmaker & Jeweller, late of Selby died at Howden in 1877 (Admin 1878) his Widow was Jane Richardson of Selby.
1877 31st January at Beverley
John Richardson, 55, Widower, Jeweller, Selby, Father was William Richardson, Jeweller,
married
Jane Larcum, 50, Widow, Beverley, Father was William Green, Inn Keeper, by Licence
Presence of Jno Green and Annie E Green.
Jane Richardson was Jane GREEN born Riston who first married at Beverley in 1854 Henry John Larcum, Cabinet Maker, also listed as a Victualler of the "Dog and Duck Inn" in Beverley. Jane Larcum's (nee Jane Green's) Father was William Green, Innkeeper, Lady Gate, Beverley, born Cowick [Snaith].
There are two Green of the Parish of Snaith links to my Hood of Selby family, John Green, Carpenter who rented a workshop in Wren Lane from George Hood (before 1841) and the above.
However, it is beginning to explain my late Grandmother's references to Snaith and Beverley.
John Newby married Ann Green at Snaith in 1834.

Wonder if he was a stepfather or something ? There aren't many Willifords about at all. Or Hales for that matter .
There is a Thomas Williford (surgeon) who marries a Judith Bell in 1768 Scarborough. Marriage licence states he was from Bridlington. There is one child William baptised there in 1770. Cannot find another Williford baptism in Scarborough or environs. Although an Ann Martha Williford marries early 1800's born c1785.
1779 Judith Williford dies, Thomas dies 1791. Judith's father was a wealthy man -
" Bell, John – Scarborough – (Will dated 1776 & Codicil 1779) – noted 1812 Certified copy of the Will & Codicil – wife Elizabeth, daughters Ann Bell, Dorothy Bell, Henrietta (w/o Nicholas Piper), Judith (w/o Thomas Williford), Elizabeth (w/o John Hebb), son Thomas Bell, sister Ann Woolfe, brother Daniel Bell (York).

Interesting a George CLARKSON, Junr was mentioned in the Will.
Thomas Gouldsbrough married Mary Russell a widow (of William Russell) nee Mary Burton and therefore links to my George HOOD when George Hood married Sarah Russell at Selby, Yorkshire in 1815.
Perhaps the Russell information on the Bible page was shown at the Manor of Selby Court, regarding Byefield, Selby, Yorkshire, taken on by the Hoods, when Mary Gouldsbrough became a widow.
