The marriages should be on freebmd - have you looked?

www.freebmd.org.uk
You could also check the 1911 census for the sons to see if they had spouses at that time.  The 1911 will also give you the number of years married to help narrow any search

The free 1911 index has entries in Durham for Ernest,Walter and Henry - who is shown as Harry - all as Sokell

Louisa who married Robert Flocket

Albert who married Abigail Mckenzie

In both marriages and births - the surname is Sokell - not Sokoll

The following instructions may help determine other members of the 1911 households

USING THE FREE 1911 INDEX TO DETERMINE THE CORRECT HOUSEHOLD

http://www.1911census.co.uk/search/tnaform.aspx

Once you find a possible match - make a note of the county and district in which the person was living

Return to the index and in PERSONAL DETAILS - just put the surname of the family - nothing else

In LOCATION - Select the county and below it - type in the district

In OTHER MEMBERS OF THE HOUSEHOLD - show the full name of the person you have found on the index

Click SEARCH

The 1911 census is strictly pay per view so you will have to buy credits to view the full entry - the above instructions will only help to possibly show others of the same name in the same household

there is a adelaide.v.sokell who married a george burn in durham in 1932
there is a death of an adelaide burn in durham in 1948 aged 58
so born 1890
which seems to match with the info on your original post

Thank Wozzle and Carole.  Special thanks for the 1911 website and the instructions.  Forgive my lack of experience for not thinking of Sokell instead of sokoll.  some day I will figure it out

It's one of those surnames that is probably "spelt as it sounds" so you will probably encounter several variations

Hi

Carole makes a good point about variations of surname on William Sokoll according to 1881 Census he was born at Manfield, not far from here in North Yorkshire is the village of Great Smeaton a few years back on a visit to the records office in Northallerton I was looking for Salkeld. In a span from 1786 to 1914 I recorded BMD`s from the Great Smeaton Parish Register these are all the surname variations I found from this one village Salkeld, Sawkeld, Sokell, Soakeld, Sokeld, Sokel, and Soakell.

For sure you have your work cut with the surname other similar sounding surnames in this area are Sawkill & Sawkell send me a PM if you would like the Great Smeaton & Manfield entries from my database you can have these no problem.
