George Hood 1815 Selby Marriage - James Cookin / James Cook in W

Quote

I think dobfarm has mentioned previously that some baptisms were just on slips of paper kept in a tin or box.

Unquote

That was Quaker Births  from on set of Quakers mentioned in monthly meetings - birth event written down on a bit of paper informally ! (considered not a big issue as C o E baptisms were)  to late 18th century (about up to 1800)

Quaker birth mention was no more important than mention of farmer Jones had got a new farm dog. - probably a birth (Women's thing) was less important with the men in the Quaker community.

Found a transcript of the marriage

William Wood a groom of Hackney, Middlesex married Mary ALLEN by licence on 12 September 1779 in Eltham, Kent.

EDIT: Can't see any children born in Kent using Wood or Hood to parents William & Mary - but there numerous children born in London using both surnames.

Now to see if the image of the marriage register is online.

F M P have updated their Yorkshire records. Have been checking to see if there are any baptisms I haven't looked at. Putting them down as interest but dates are not really what we are looking at.

George son of Richard Hed (not sure - the register is in appalling condition) and Rhoda (daughter of George Clegg) born May 24th 1780.

And another George Head Bapt. 1782 Rotherham - son of Robert and Jane.
Born: 23 March 1782
Bapt: 21 May 1782

George Huit Bapt. 1790 Mexborough son of Humphrey .

Another George Huit Bapt 1794 - Roman Catholic - son of Nic ? & M, at Hazlewood

Hi

Thanks Claire.

Got these two 1880 Admins for George & Sarah Hood's two daughters.

Ellen Hood, late of Selby, in the County of York, deceased, who died on the twenty seventh day of July 1855, at Selby aforesaid a Spinster without parent and intestate ...

granted ... to James Hood, of Joplings Buildings in the City of Durham Tallow Chandler, the natural and lawful Brother, and one of the next of kin of the said deceased, ...

Sureties Samuel Jopling, of Western Hill in the City of Durham, Tallow Chandler, and Frederick Morgan, of Sadler Street, in the City of Durham, Grocer.

Effects under £100 No Leaseholds
      Extracted by James Chambers Solicitor Durham.



To prevent confusion the words "without parent" is incorrect at the death date, because their Mother Sarah (nee Russell) outlived these two daughters.

Mary Ellen Chapman nee Hood - her daughter Elizabeth married a Morgan. Think that family were from Sheffield - steel manufacturers I think.

EDIT - was there a post on the Hoods in Newcastle or am I losing my marbles ?

[dobfarm]

Mary Ellen -Though two forenames are sometimes picked intentionally too be used as one name in speech ie: "Mary Ellen" Walton in TV "Waltons" (mountain) USA

[..claire..]

Yes I remember the Waltons

"Night Jim-Bob" and all that

Thank you Claire

Brilliant, the family is widening out.

A researcher, hopefully will find the John Hood buried NC at Ballast Hills, because I just cannot rule anything in, or out 100%.


I've got to have another look, as the piece/s required is/are not online!
