???? - 1827
Daughter and co-heiress of Rev. Thomas Dannett Rector of Liverpool, mother of Mary Anne Cust and mother-in-law of Edward Cust (q.v.), widow of Lewis William Boode.
An account of her uncle, Henry Dannett (the first incumbent of St John's church, Liverpool) suggests her grandfather was John Dannett, gent "Sude"(possibly Shude) hill Manchester, and indicates Henry Dannett's second son, James, "a West India merchant" died in July 1837. Her father, Thomas was one of the Rectors of Liverpool. This source states that Margaret died in 1826, killed by a fall from her carriage.
Will of Margaret Boode widow of Leasowe Castle proved 16/02/1827. She left her estate in trust to pay her sister Mary Dannett an annuity of £150 p.a., and then for life to her daughter Mary Anne Cust and her husband Edward Cust and afterwards to their children. She entitled her trustees (among them her cousin James Dannett, then in Demerara) with the consent of Mary Anne and Edward Cust to sell her [unspecified] property in Demerary, and instructed that the proceeds of such a sale be reinvested in property in Britain.
Jeremiah Finch Smith (ed.), The admission register of the Manchester school (1866) pp. 150-151. Note that, rather than Shudehill in Manchester, the family may be from Sude Hill in Holmfirth, where there are DannAtts.
PROB 11/1721/312.
