Richard Gibson married 1792 Selby- 1800 trade directory a Cooper Wren lane Selby

That could mean they had on children but maybe sideways related to John Hood (Uncle George)

Its Mark's ancestry - I'll take your viewing of the Will, that nothing is in the Will that's important info as connecting ancestry.

There appear to have been several children born to the marriage, but none are named in the will.   The date, however, ties in with Eleanor Hood, widow, marrying John Scott, Waterman, who was the Bondsman on the marriage bond & allegation for John Hood, Mariner & Elizabeth Gibson.   Therefore there seems a strong possibility - although no proof - that George Hood & Eleanor Wetherstone were the parents of John Hood, Mariner & possibly later a waterman.

If this is correct then Jane Hood 1783 d/o John Hood, Waterman could be a sister of George Hood b 1786 s/o John Hood, Mariner.

I would think job names mariner/waterman would overlap with packboats which were river/sea going vessels as far as vicars interpretations are concerned.

You've done well today Jomot !  -time for a cuppa. Its up to Mark now to make sense of it all. I've lost track but there is something forming.

There is a PCC will for George Hood, Seaman dated  22nd April 1771, proved 1774 which names his widow as Eleanor of Newcastle upon Tyne.

A PCC Will.

This strongly suggests he was a property owner in both the Provinces of York and Canterbury
OR he died outside of England and Wales.

Being a Mariner, he could of died outside the England & Wales jurisdiction, but if death did occur in E or W it suggests he may have owned property in the two Provincial regions.

A few people would qualify on both counts, for a PCC Will.

This George Hood with the Will, may turn out to be a possible sideways brother, to my direct descent line though?

Regards Mark

The Will of George Hood mariner 1771/1774 proved- There could be additional probate papers with the Will bungle or probate admin papers in relation to where he died (Region of the world), though being a mariner ? A York, Durham or Canterbury Will makes little difference.

As a sailor visiting many ports, if he was a captain of a ship could have owned property anywhere (more coastal or abroad) on that base alone

I have sent Mark a copy of the Will, which states the name of the ship he was on when it was written (HMS Orford).   The ship sailed to the East Indies.  The witness was John Strachan, who I take to be Sir John Strachan, who commanded the Orford from 1770.

I have also sent Mark information about the Newcastle Trinity House records which state that in 1770 they offered a reward to seamen who volunteer into the royal navy.  This may well be how & why George ended up on the Orford.

George Hood Bapt 1733 Scarborough son of George

No infant/Teenage boy burial or marriage found Yorkshire

Though he could have stayed a bachelor as a mariner but unlikely those days.
