Thread: John (Jack) Thomas Hood

I seem to be hitting a bit of a wall with this part of my family - I cant find Jack and trying to find maiden name of wife etc. John was born in 1871 (Served in World War 1) and married Eva who was born in 1861 and they had two children Hilda(1916) and Roland (older brother) - I believe Roland was Missing in Action but can find no details of this.

I think they all lived in North Yorkshire nr Bridlington

Can anyone help

Thanks
David

Hi David,

Hi David

This is John Thomas Hood’s entry in the National Probate Calendar

Hood, John Thomas of Blandford Hull – road Withernsea, Yorkshire died 4 June 1925 Probate York 29 June to Eva Hood widow and Charles Arthur Moulds, Railway Clerk – Effects £288 1s

Thank you very much

You're welcome David

The above record leads me to believe that Eva was possibly born 1885 not 1861 – one of the beneficiaries of John Thomas’ will was Eva’s younger brother – Charles Arthur Moulds.
