• Notes

  The Life of Ann Dove (c.1812–1892) Ann Dove was born around the year 1812 in South Shields, a coastal town in County Durham, England. She was christened shortly after, on 14 February 1813, in St. Hilda Church in South Shields. Her parents were John Dove and Ann, whose maiden name is not known. Nothing is recorded about her early life or education. On 28 March 1830, at approximately 18 years old, Ann married John Bewick in West Rainton, County Durham. John was born in 1806 in Little Eppleton, Durham. The couple settled in the Hetton le Hole area, which was a growing mining community at the time. Ann and John had a total of 14 children between 1830 and 1856. Most of their children were born in Hetton le Hole. Her husband John Bewick died in 1884 at the age of 77. At that point, Ann was a widow and lived for another eight years. She died on 29 March 1892, at around 80 years of age. She was buried on 1 April 1892 at St. Aiden Church in New Herrington, County Durham. Some of her children stayed in the Durham area, while others emigrated to Australia and the United States, indicating the family eventually became spread across continents. There are no specific records of Ann’s occupation or daily activities, but based on the time and location, she likely dedicated much of her life to raising her children and managing the household.
