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

[BushInn1746]

Hello

Claire, the 1945 letter written by J. W. Chapman of Doncaster and Scarborough deals mainly with James Hood's children, then on page 2 refers to a mystery WINIFRED HOOD who did not marry.


Page 1 of the 1945 Letter basically says:-

Nellie Hood married my Uncle Arthur Chapman, [so this was Mary Ellen Hood in 1873]

Elizabeth Hood married J. B. Sugars. [Elizabeth Cook Hood]

Adeline Hood married a Mr Featherstone. [Married 1885]

Sally Hood, married, died about 20 years ago and was buried in Doncaster [Sally = Sarah Hood married Wm Oswin 1894. Sarah of Balby died 1919].


Page 2 "I understand there was also a daughter Winifred Hood who did not marry, and the last I heard of her was that she was residing in Harrogate, but my informant does not know her address."

 --------

Is this the mystery Hood relative living in Harrogate, to which J. W. Chapman (Nephew of Arthur Chapman) a Hood relative is referring back to ...

It isn't Winifred Elizabeth Hood, well it could be, BUT a Winifred Featherstone is in Harrogate in 1939.

So I'm not sure at all , I'm trying to find out who Mabel North is. Winifred E Hoods parents were George ( master printer and stationer ) and Ann Elizabeth ( Brierly). She had a sister Mabel, so looking into that

 Just sending you an email with those school records, and something else I spotted tonight.

Thanks Claire

But Winifred Featherstone (Mother was a Hood 19th Century), can't be the unmarried "Winifred Hood" mentioned in the 1945 letter (in my last reply above)? Seems I am looking for a Winifred HOOD, after the emergence of this 1945 letter in the last 2 days?

 --------

I am fairly sure the Chapmans of Doncaster were PRINTERS too.

From Claire

Arthur Chapman died 1897 and is buried in Hyde Park Cemetery, Doncaster, plot C298.
Mary Ellen Chapman nee Hood [born Selby to James & Sarah Hood] aged 57 died 1 November 1910 and is buried with Arthur (in consecrated ground).

William Martin Chapman born 1879 married Charlotte Wilson North 1901 Doncaster. Three children: Norah Evelyn Chapman born 1906, Stewart Arundel Chapman born 1905 and Arthur North Chapman born 1903.

 --------

Two of my Gt. Gt. Aunts in my HOOD line, had Doncaster connections and one mentions a Chapman in our family correspondence.

 --------

Another Mystery HOOD?
Just need to ensure I get to the bottom of the WINIFRED HOOD, mentioned in the 1945 letter of J. W. Chapman of Doncaster and Scarborough, sent to the US?

Letter 1945: Page 2 "I understand there was also a daughter Winifred Hood who did not marry, and the last I heard of her was that she was residing in Harrogate, but my informant does not know her address."

A handwritten note (added to the typed 1945 letter) Information from Mabel North, 4 Hampton Road, Doncaster, says "Did not marry. Winifred Hood"

Regards Mark

[..claire..]

Mabel Lydia North was the sister of Charlotte Wilson North.

Died in 1956: lived at 4 Hampton Road, buried Doncaster Christchurch.

Probate granted to Thomas William Walter Anelay North.

Looks like from your information, the author of the handwritten note lived until 1956.

So we are looking for a Winifred Hood who never married and may once have lived at Harrogate at some point, which seems to throw my Census suggestion above, out of the window?

Thank you Claire

I wonder why J. W. Chapman called her "Winifred Hood". The one in the quote was never a Hood by name.

 --------

A Winifred Hood, Spinster, was mentioned in a 1941 Hood Probate.

 --------

Re Harrogate, a 1931 to 1941 search has Hoods dying at no less than three Harrogate addresses.

1937 Hannah M Hood, of Pannal nr Harrogate
[Edwin Casson lived at Pannal House].

1939 Hannah Hood, proved by Wilfred Wilkinson.

1940 George Barker Hood, Otley Road.

 --------

I've found a Frederick Hood of 147 St Saviours Road, Leicester, dying at the Carley St. Baptist Chapel, Leicester, on 12 Sept 1934, probably at the same Chapel that one of my Hoods attended! Florence Brooks was Hood's Widow.

There are quite a few Winifred Hoods to check out. I was a tad dubious finding Winifred Featherstone in Harrogate though I have to admit.

Adeline Featherstone died in 1931, I'm surprised they hadn't heard that.

When I was checking Adeline Hoods marriage there was another Adeline Hood that married in Leicestershire in 1893. I had initially thought the name Adeline was more unique than the Mary, Hannah and Sarah's I'm used to checking for.

Extract quote from Goughy

Me

In short Hannah Hood was Henry Bacon's mother

Hello

Some of the Bacons were Presbyterian (alias spelling Presbiterian), same as John Mush mentioned in the 1727 Will of Roger Hood of Selby.
Henry Bacon married Hannah Hood Daughter of Mr Hood of Selby Surgeon, early half of the 18th Cent.

Selby Presbyterian
Leonard Chamberlain, Draper, Market Place, Hull, a prominent Presbyterian lived in Selby (left Will 19 August 1716);
Beatrix Bacon was involved;
the Bacon family intermarried with Morrit and then the Bacon Morrit name appears.


After circa 1800 Unitarians began to have an influence over the Presbyterians in this area.


Rev. William Severn preached at Selby, but came from the Bowl Alley Lane Chapel, Hull and Severn died 22 June 1813, aged 58. Also managed to find his widow's notice attached.

Interested who the Ministers were at the Bowl Alley Lane Chapel, Hull in the 1780s. I might access Bowl Alley Lane records at my Library.
