George Edward Hood

[BushInn1746]

Roseana Hood, came into my mind? But no reason why it did.

[jonw65]

Well I still think that Rose Hood may have been Rhoda Ingram. I can't get the idea out of my head

There may be some evidence that Joseph Ingram and Rhoda split!
Joseph Bromley Ingram, Silver Chaser, moved his business in London from 17 East Road, Shoreditch to 20 Featherstone Street, EC, and is last listed in the PO London Directory for 1903.

The last appearance of Joseph in the electoral registers at 13 Florence Street, Islington, was in 1905.
Then what?

I think Joseph could have married again in Manchester in 1921 to Alice Lee.
In the census that year they are at 99 Russell Street. According to the free index Joseph was born in 1863 in Warwick, Warwickshire. Alice born in 1870, Manchester, Lancashire.
I don't know if there is more, but he certainly comes up with occupation Silver Chaser

He could still be the man who was in Broughton, Lancashire, in 1911, saying he was widowed. If so, then where was Rhoda?

There are newspaper announcements (Manchester Evening News) of the marriage of Joseph Ingram and Alice Lee, and their deaths (he died in 1926, she died in 1951)
I am hoping to get hold of them later, unless someone else wants to do it first!

There is also now a database online called Greater Manchester Electoral Registers 1820-1940.
This may(!) have Joseph Ingram and Alice Lee at 99 Russell Street in 1919
Again, I hope to get hold of these records later today!

In 1911 census the following.

George Edward Hood 30 Fancy Tie Maker born Hoxton (age out by 3 years)
Rose Hood 35 Fancy Tie Maker born Birmingham  (Married 5 years)
William Ingram 21 Brother in Law--Ledgers Clerk born Hoxton.

I have never found an "alleged" marriage to Rose and wonder just who she is.

Hello John

The years married for Rose, have been struck through in Red.

[jonw65]

But the years married/number of children details have been written twice, against both George's and Rose's entries. Apparently by the same hand, and when the form was originally filled in. They should have been written only once, against Rose's entry.
So either the enumerator, or more likely a government clerk, struck through the wrong entry!

101 in red by birthplace Birmingham for Rose, certainly done later by a clerk. 101 was the code for Birmingham

Perhaps one, or both of them, were each married to someone else?

[jonw65]

There is also now a database online called Greater Manchester Electoral Registers 1820-1940.
This may(!) have Joseph Ingram and Alice Lee at 99 Russell Street in 1919

That was the Spring 1919 register.
Even better, the 1918 register is on there (but all the names do not seem to appear in the index!)

Register of Electors, 1918

Alice Lee was at 99 Russell Street in 1911. Isabella Halhead - her great friend - also there

That is always a strong possibility when you can't find a marriage for a couple. It would more likely be Rose, as SS knows everything there is to know about George Edward.

[BushInn1746]

Rose Hood, is a bit of a mystery.

[BushInn1746]

I presume you have this Baptism.
St James Upper Edmonton, London, Middlesex.

'Alleged Date of Birth' 22nd July 1920.
Baptism 26th September 1920.
Grace May Hood.
Parents George Edward & Clara May Hood, 22 Langhedge Lane,

1917 Marriage Certificate not found online, but it is indexed.

I also wonder if George Edward Hood had intended to marry Rose [ ? ] called her Rose Hood in 1911, made up 5 years married.

Then married Clara May Prior (1911 Census at South Bromley, 17yrs, born Poplar, Middlesex, with parents, Robert Prior 55 & Mary Ann 51yrs.
Clara May Prior, baptised 7 Oct 1894, both addresses 30 Yatton Street).
