George Hutchinson born about 1770 in Northumberland England
My brick wall is George Hutchinson (G9MQ-WDL). The only records I have of him are 2 christening records for his daughters Hannah and Anne. Those records list his wife as Jane Hutchinson (which is obviously her married name). There are many George Hutchinson's around this time and area. Some even with a wife Jane. I need some type of record that ties George, Jane and Hannah of Anne together. Any help that anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated.

FindMyPast lists a number of marriages between a George Hutchinson and a Jane in Northumberland. But they are all too early or late to be matches except for the one to Jane Thompson on 29 Aug 1772 in Newcastle. This matches the christening location of Anne and Hannah. The 1851 and 1861 census records for Hannah say that she was born in Corbridge - at 16 miles from Newcastle looks doubtful.
1772 is almost a generation before Hannah and Ann's christenings casting some doubt whether this is the correct marriage.
The hints for George do show other christenings in Newcastle to a George and Jane including a George in 1789 and Ann in 1787. These narrow the gap somewhat but, if the marriage in 1772 is correct, there must almost certainly be more children somewhere.
Checked Ancestry - a number of members have Hannah on their trees but none offer insights into George or Jane.
You could try DNA via Ancestry or others. But George and Jane are a bit far back for this to stand a good chance of working.
Checked FMP burial records with no success.
Not veyr helpful I'm afraid.

I would agree with Graham that there is probably no connection between any George and Jane of Corbridge and the couple who lived in the parish of Newcastle All Saints.
What you really need to advise us if whether you think it is more likely that you are interested in the Newcastle or Corbridge Hutchinson family.
The FreeREG website has the 1772 marriage between George Hutchinson and Jane Thompson that Graham details above. It also includes records of the baptism of their children Elizabeth 1774, Jane 1775, George 1780, Robert 1787, George 1789, HANNAH 1792 and Ann 1797 - these all took place at All Saints church and show a Waterman occupation for George (as shown in his 1772 marriage record). There are other baptisms showing George Hutchinson as father, but not with a Waterman occupation. Only the 02 September 1792 baptism of Hannah shows a mother's name: JANE. (No burial record is shown for the George baptised in 1780, although another George was baptised in 1789.)
Ah, but I have just noticed that the 1792 Newcastle All Saints baptism has already been assumed to be for "your" Hannah Hutchinson and included under her Vitals section - but along with a 1791 birth, based on the 1851 & 1861census records. However, there appear to be no Hannah Hutchinson baptisms at Corbridge during this period - not even any no Corbridge baptisms where a George Hutchinson is shown as father.
Without the Corbridge birthplace being shown in the census records, I might have been inclined to accept the family of All Saints, Newcastle is the one you should be concentrating on. However, there were other Hannah Hutchinson marriages at Newcastle - notably in 1811 and 1813. Also, have you checked the marriage entry for Robert Winter and Hannah Hutchinson to confirm she was not a widow at marriage? (This seems unlikely, however, as I have even found the marriages of three other "Hannahs" baptised at Corbridge around this time!)
If you have any further family details, we might be able to provide further help, but that Corbridge birth is certainly the current stumbling block for matching Hannah with the Hutchinsons of Newcastle. For now, you could also visit the FreeREG website to see if you can find anything further yourself that might provide clues.

I have just made two further checks. On Durham Records Online I found a 1791 baptism of a Hannah Hutchinson in the Hexham area (further detail behind a paywall) and - back to FreeREG - a 27 February 1791 baptism of Hannah to William Hutchinson at St John Lee parish (in the Hexham area and just 4 miles from Corbridge). William's place of abode is shown as "Hollin Hall" on DRO. There is a "Hollin House", east of Corbridge.
So, if "your" Hannah is definitely from the Corbridge area, it looks likely she had a father William, not George, but if you are certain her parents were George & Jane (and had a sister Anne, as shown) you are probably looking to the Newcastle family.

One final contribution for the night. A William Hutchinson married Ann Usher 24 May 1778 at Corbridge. They had one child, Isabell, baptised there in 1779, then probably moved to the parish of St John Lee, where Nicholas 1781, Hannah, Eleanor and other siblings were baptised.
It is doubtful that George Hutchinson of Newcastle would have had any (later) connections to inland, Northumberland parishes, as he was a waterman, so I do believe it might be a choice between George and William as being the father of Hannah.
Another point to think about is that there were three Hannah Hutchinson marriage at Newcastle during this period:
1811 St Andrew to Joseph Eyre, 1813 St John the Baptist to Christopher William Knowles and (of course) 1817 St Andrew to Robert Winter. There are other Hannah Hutchinson baptisms that could be a match for any of these events, but -as you realise - positive identification is not easy here.
