On checking freeBMD I get 2 results when giving a yob as 1870.
Deaths Mar 1905 
Bell    Mary    34    Durham     10a   272    
BELL    Mary Ann    34    Sunderland 10a 390   
I am thinking the best option is the first one? (In 1901 she is at Black Row, Woodside, Ryton)

Also, seeing as Robert and Jane Hooks have son Robert Bell c1908 then the son Robert Bell c1889 of Robert and and Mary Cole must die at some point and seeing that he is on the 1891 census and not on the 1901 census somewhere there in between

Mother Margaret born 7th March 1893.

May help if she married and Edwin/James took on an adopted surname.
