Hi
I have a Will of John Turner of Hambleton dated 1738, he is possibly John Turners father or grandfather. He bequeathes to his son George Turner and to his heirs forever 'one close of meadow or pasture ground lying in the Lordship of Hambleton aforesaid or known by the name of ( it looks like) Cansey Close'. - wonder if it's the same place ?
Looking back at the posts, Christopher Obee was one of the trustees named in a property transference. Christopher Obee & his family were Wesleyan Methodists. When Obee married, one of the witnesses was Benjamin Hemingway - isn't he also listed as being at that chapel ?

Hello
Thanks Claire
Very good finds.
Yes Jno Turner, with Ben Hemingway underneath are listed
Chapel in 1789, see the first image in my last post.
I am certain that Jno Turner listed under Chapel in 1789 (Selby Land Tax) disappears at the same time as John Hood's Landlord Jno Turner does in the 1789 Selby Land Tax (following the pages through from 1786).
Claire reply below - by going back in the Selby Land Tax to 1781 it was a Presbyterian Chapel - Jno Turner.
Also read that the Parish Church could refuse to bury, where there was no baptism, or only offer a burial plot against the Parish Churchyard (Cemetery) Boundary wall.
Possibly might explain the Quakers burying George Hood as "Not in Membership", if he was Nonconformist and had good dealings with the Quakers.
A family friend has said his Father had to trace their Nonconformist family in the Dr Williams Library.
