In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth

I see   Poppleton / Pappleton / Dappleton ??? ???

Can you see any capital P or D elsewhere, to compare?

Yes its P - the writers D has the traditional back loop at the bottom of the down straight line of the D  a known D of a surname Dickson. They may have married later.

May have had a illegitimate son George Poppleton 1788.

There is a burial of a Jane Hood 1803 Selby age 65 wife of John Hood a mariner, hence maybe why John (away at sea) maybe crossed off and Jane ran the Mill. (Miller)
