The blue Café on corner of Thompson Street and Greenwood Street was run by a Greek family but after many years I cannot recall their name. The area has now been redeveloped and the café no longer exists but was well known.

Sorry been absent so long but it was for domestic reasons.
Piecing everything together the following details of Abram Andrews Liddle seem to fit.
Abram was the son of Abram Andrews and was born 31sy May 1897 but the birth was not registered until 10th August 1933 the informant being Isabella Battison who was present at the birth, and resided at 16 Thurston Street, West Hartlepool. The birth certificate shows Abram's mother as Isabella Liddle and no father is shown. It is not thought that Isabella Battison was previously Liddle as she would have been identified as the mother and so far I cannot find her marriage to confirm her maiden name as Liddle.
So it seems Abram Andrews kept what appears to be the illegitimate son and Isabella Liddle left the scene.
The 1891 census shows Isabella Liddle at home with parents aged 13 which would make her 19 when Abram Andrews (it says Andrews on the census returns 1911) Liddle was born.
I have yet to find a marriage to Isabella and Abram.

My sincere thanks for all help received in putting this relationship together.

Well here I am again back on Abram Andrews Liddle. Wrongly thought I had a birth certificate but I did not. Had names mixes up. Anyway I ordered one and GRO found no trace. When I gave them page number and the late reference of S/33 they told me that the birth was registered in September quarter 1933 and the handwritten entry was a cross reference in the correct year of birth.
Looking at the census again the name is clearly written Abram Andrews (and not Andrew) Liddle.
This birth certificate shows:
Date of Birth:  31st May 1897 at 14 South Redwood Street.
Name: Abram Andrews, Boy
Fathers name is blank!!   (just to confuse)
Maiden Name  of Mother: Isabella Liddle
Signature of person reporting: Isabella Battison, present at the birth, 16 Throston Street, West Hartlepool
When Registered: 10th August 1933 on the authority of the Registrar General

Looked on Free BMD for battison marriage to no avail

Hi Lorna,

Thanks for the response. I shall  have a look on Ancestry.
Agree you are correct in thinking there are 2 Joanna's as the Ann Cuff daughter married Hallet as you state.

Thanks Annette. This is a puzzler. As mentioned earlier Fred's father listed himself as Johnson Snarey Liddle on Fred's marriage certificate.
The previous observation that Abram was the result of an affair with Mary Atkinson seems possible as he is listed on 1901 and 1911 census as grandson and looking at various trees on Ancestry Abram does not appear to be listed amongst the children. The son Richard was born 1889 and then a gap until 1898 when Frederick was born. With Abram being born 1897 could Fred and Mary have parted or he was working somewhere or even prison and Mary had an affair. Cannot find Abrams birth certificate so have ordered one to see how that shapes up with parent details. Overall I cannot find a link for the Liddles to belong to the Andrews family or the related Robinsons and Dawkins so I shall wait for the certificate and take it from there.
Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread and once received I shall update.

Thanks Hpool. Already had that marriage but not the church.
Following on CaroleW I pulled the marriage certificate for Frederick Liddle and Mary Atknson and noticed that his father is given as Johnson Snarey Liddle just to confuse me even further.
I seem to have misplaced my 1861 census record so will have to search this weekend for the entry of John & Ann/a.
Will now let my headache subside and continue looking later!.
