Charles Gorsuch married secondly "the fifteenth day of the twelfth month commonly called February * * 1690" [-91] Ann Hawkins. The record of this is to be found among the Marriage Certificates of the West River, Anne Arundel County Monthly Meeting (p. 16; Hicksite Friends Records, Baltimore). The certificate describes them as "Charles Gossidge of the County of Baltimore, in the Province of Maryland, son of John and Ann Gossidgc of the Kingdom of England, deceased, and Ann Hawkins of the county aforesaid, daughter of John and Mary Hawkins of Anna Arundcll County, deceased." Charles Gorsuch signs and Ann Hawkins makes her mark. The marriage took place at the house of William Richardson, Senior of Anne Arundel County. Forty witnesses sign their names. This certificate is important in establishing beyond question the identity of Charles4 Gorsucn and the Maryland and Virginia Gorsuches. The antecedents of John and Mary Hawkirs of Anne Arundel County, parents of Ann (Hawkins) Gorsuch, have not been investigated. His wife Ann joins Charles Gorsuch in a deed May 4th, 1691. She seems to have died before her husband, and he apparently had no issue by her.
