Researched and Written by Mark Simmons, Curator (Development), Hartlepool Borough Council, for International Women’s Day 2018.

I’d like to acknowledge the assistance of Museum volunteers Margaret Hodgson and Francis Wilson, especially for help with identifying previous academic work relating to the North East, and with details of the family of Amy Norman.
