I appreciate this post is old however can help - though you may now have all the answers you need. Ann Cherry was my great great grandmother. She was indeed born with the surname Burgon, in Berwick on Tweed - in a place called The Greens in Berwick. If you get to go there, there’s a little pub with loads of Burgon information in it. They were fishermen and the Burgons were also part of the lifeboat crew and the lighthouse keepers too. Ann Cherry had a daughter also called Annie who married Joseph Nelson Dawson in Hartlepool. They are one set of my paternal great grandparents and I know a lot about the Cherry’s and Burgons and do have some photographs. Let me know if you need anything else.
