Hi,
I have a marriage certificate of Thomas William Hudspeth and Martha Jane Dickenson in the parish of St Chad, Gateshead in 1920. No idea why it is in our family papers and I have never heard of them, but thought I would put the details here In case it is of use/interest to anyone else!

Try looking on search trees to see if anyone has either in their trees.
The cert may be welcome to them

Tried that but there is nothing that fits their details. I'm guessing they must be some kind of relative as it is the original certificate with the old stamps on, not a modern copy. Maybe I'll turn up a link later on.

Thanks. It looks like she left her money to my great grandfather and great uncle, so there must be a family connection somewhere. I'll do a bit of hunting around when I've got more definite information on closer relatives; meanwhile, if anyone else recognises her as a relative, they are welcome to any info I have.

Philippa - just because your relatives are named as her executors, it doesn't necessarily mean that they were also her heirs. They were presumably people who she trusted to carry out her last wishes
You sometimes see a Bank or a Solictor named as an Executor!!!

1901 England Census about Thomas Burduss Atkinson Name: Thomas Burduss Atkinson Age: 27 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1874 Relation to Head: Head Gender: Male Spouse: Charlotte Jane Atkinson Birth Place: Haydon Bridge, Northumberland, England Civil Parish: Gateshead Ecclesiastical parish: St Chad County/Island: Durham Country: England Registration district: Gateshead Sub-registration district: Gateshead ED, institution, or vessel: 27 Neighbors: View others on page Piece: 4753 Folio: 158 Page Number: 5 Household schedule number: 27 Household Members: Name Age Thomas Burduss Atkinson 27 railway porter Charlotte Jane Atkinson 30 Thomas Banduss Atkinson 4/12
Atkinson / Dickenson link, if Thomas B (senior)'s mother was indeed Isabella, as in Mary's post above:
1881 England Census about Thomas Atkinson Name: Thomas Atkinson Age: 7 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1874 Relationship to Head: Step Son Mother: Isabella Dickenson Gender: Male Where born: Chapelry of Haydon, Northumberland, England Civil Parish: Thorngrafton County/Island: Northumberland Country: England Street address: Oats Close Occupation: Scholar Registration district: Haltwhistle Sub registration district: Haltwhistle ED, institution, or vessel: 13 Neighbors: View others on page Piece: 5110 Folio: 47 Page Number: 4 Household Members: Name Age William Dickenson 36 Isabella Dickenson 35 Mary B. Atkinson 10 Thomas Atkinson 7 Robert R. Dickenson 2 Margaret Snowden 5
So Martha Jane was Thomas B's half-sister. (see 1891 census in previous post)
Don't know if Annie Atkinson in my previous post is any relation or not. It's quite a common name - maybe just coincidence that Martha Jane worked for her.
