WOOD of Cropton, Parish of Middleton
« on: Sunday 05 March 23 09:05 GMT (UK) »
I have posted in case anyone should be looking for Charlotte Ann Thompson, illegitimate and stated to be about 15 years old in 1872.

1872
The inquest on the body of the murdered yeoman, Joseph Wood, of Cropton, was held at Pickering, on Saturday, before Mr. Ness, coroner. John' and William Wood, brothers of the deceased, gave evidence as to the identity of the remains, as did his illegitimate daughter, Charlotte Ann Thompson, aged about 15, ...

Other 1872 newspapers give her Mother's name and occupation.
