   Bio: Beatrice Hood was the daughter of Peter Hood and Mary O’Neil. She was born in East Benhar, Whitburn,West-Lothian, Scotland on the 12 January 1878. The family moved to the Whitburn area in 1873. It is there they had their last four children, Beatrice being the youngest child.Peter and Mary Hood had joined the LDS Church 1855, a short time before they were married. They had been strong members of the Church and wanted to comply with the urgings of the Church to move “to Zion” to raise their family. On 21 October 1882, when Beatrice was four years old, Mary (the mother) and her youngest children sailed to America on the ship “Abyssinia” from Liverpool, England. They landed in New York on 3 November 1882.Their destination was Almy, Wyoming, where new mines were being opened in Unita and Lincoln Counties. They settled in Almy, Wyoming and soon many of their immediate family members, who were still in Scotland, joined them there. Beatrice grew up in Almy where they had good schools and an active LDS Ward for the family to attend church. John Weir, who Beatrice later married, also came to Almy from Scotland a few years earlier. They both grew up in Almy and had known each other since childhood.Most of the men and fathers in Almy were colliers, but Beatrice had the added advantage of having a mother who had her own bakery shop, as she had in Scotland. She provided the town with delicious baked goods. Hot cross buns were her specialty!On April 12, 1898 Beatrice and John Tudehope Weir were married in the Salt Lake City Latter-day Saint Temple. They lived in Salt Lake for the first few years of their marriage. They had three children while living there, but Beatrice went home to Almy to be with her mother when she delivered her first two girls, Ethel and Mary. Ellen was born in Salt Lake City, Margaret was born in Glencoe and John “Jack” Jr. was born in Diamondville.The Weir family moved to Glencoe, Wyoming when John could not find work in Salt Lake City. In Glencoe he became a mine foreman which was a very good job. Life was a little different in Glencoe. There was no LDS Branch so the children were taught the Gospel in their home on Sunday. They had a school for the children, but the facilities were not what they had been used to in Salt Lake.After John T. Weir, Jr. was born in 1914, Beatrice’s health deteriorated. She had probably had rheumatic fever as a child, as so many children did in the 1800s and early 1900s. The medical researchers later discovered that those children who had rheumatic fever, developed mitral valve heart disease as adults and caused early deaths. By early, some died in their late teens and others in their thirties or forties. Beatrice was strong enough to give birth to five children, but as she got older she did not have the strength to care for them. She died in Glencoe, Wyoming at the young age of 39 years.

    Hood or Hoods?
    
    This family's surname originally started off as 'Heads'. Other spellings found have included Heids, Huds and Hoads. It soon became Hoods in most records but from the early 19th century the 's' began to be dropped until 'Hood' was used exclusively.
    
    For consistency 'Hood' in preference to Hoods or Heads in this website is used mainly for consistency.
