Got there ! Transcribed as Simmons on Find My Past (have reported transcription error, but looking at the original I'm not sure they'll buy it, although Ancestry has it correctly). No occupation for Frances.

The marriage looks to be 1882

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Sep 1882 (>99%)
Brogan Edward Hartlepool 10a 199
BUDD Frances Hartlepool 10a 199 <<<<<
Fox Mary Ann Hartlepool 10a 199
Menk Carl Hartlepool 10a 199
SUMMERS James Hartlepool 10a 199 <<<<<

There is an Edward and Mary Ann Brogan living in Hartlepool 1891, eldest child 8 so would look to fit.

There is only the one birth registration for a Frances Budd in Durham 1861+/- 2 years (not definitive as there was no penalty for not registering a birth until the 1870's).

So, I wonder if this could be her in 1881, her place of birth just listed as the area in which she worked

Hi thank you it could be a possability . i do know that james summers died before frances .and that could also be why i couldnt find a death for her thank you .

This is only a possibility - I wonder if she had a second marriage? There is a marriage registered in S.Shields in the Dec quarter 1937 of a Frances Summers to Thomas R. Proud. Both appear together in the 1939 Register. Her birth year is given there as 1863 and his as 1865,

There is a death for a Frances Proud registered in S. Shields in March qu. 1944 in S Shields aged 80.
