1) I was expecting to see the Father as James Hood, [born Selby, Yorkshire] so is there another William Russell Hood, about, please?
2) "Wm Russell Hood", may have done a bunk by the 1891 England & Wales Census and may be one (with 2 pieces of baggage) intending to get P. S. [Permanent Settlement] in Philadelphia, according to the July 1888 Steamship "Roman" records from Liverpool to the Port of Boston (District of Boston & Charlestown), on Familysearch.
Is there any Court application references anywhere, please?
