I am trying to find some more information about Mary Ann Burdon, she is from Monkwearmouth, sunderland area and was born in 1855 to George and Isabella Burdon, the last I have found is she lived with her parents at 1 wellington street, monkwearmouth in 1891 and was 36 but I cant seem to trace her since.

There's a marriage in Sunderland for a Mary Ann Burdon but it's in 1906, she would have been about 51 by then.

In 1901 there's a Mary A Burdon (spinster) boarding with the Robson family in Sunderland. The age is a couple of years out but maybe the informant wasn't sure of her age.
