Uh oh! There were also 2 Caldwell births in Newcastle with MMN Carruthers in 1930 and 1933.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Do you know of any children born of the marriage?
Freebmd shows possible births of offspring with each of those surnames as mother's maiden name, but one looks more likely than the other.

Do you know when Mary died?
If it was after 1969, her birthdate should show on her death registration.

There are 6 Caldwell births with MMN Symington in Newcastle-on-Tyne between 1931-1946. So her maiden name was evidently Symington and she was previously married to a Carruthers.

Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

So she was evidently a Carruthers who was previously married to a Symington or vice versa. Look for a Carruthers/Symington marriage with a first name Mary J.
