Find Ancestors

Hi
Sorry I've been doing my tree for years but I've never managed to grasp how to get a census with an address
I have a William Thomas Earley getting married in 1880 at St Andrew Manchester he is 20 address 29 Brown St
Marring Elizabeth Cook 18 of 27 Brown St
Think William Thomas was Illegitimate as no father on his birth or on his Marriage certificate his mother is down as Ann ?

Could some one find Brown St 1881 think it could be in the Ardwick area as Thomas & Elizabeth are their in 1881

Thank you

Thank you for that They married in 1880 so I thought the parents might have still be there
There name does seem to alter Earley -Hurley
I'll have a look o see if those are Elizabeth parents it Thomas I am interested in
The Baptism Chris has put on looks good not sure about the names Hanna could be Ann
Is it in Latin?

Yes the census for the Cook family fits on the marriage certificate Elizabeths father is George a bolt maker

Thanks Chris I've just been looking at the baptism om Lancashire...…..
The first bit is means William I've seen that before but it's the next bit fillius Georgii Howel & Hannae does that mean his parents??

It would seem we have Earley-Hurley now Howley could they be transcription errors but then Corby in the margin?

Would get the Birth Cert., see what it says, also address...

Chris :)

Edits
(your reference to his Mother down as Ann, where is this from?, if the Birth Cert., what address is there)

Earley / Hurley / Howley are just variations depending on how the clerk thought it sounded and ought to be spelled.

If the family members were illiterate, they wouldn't know how to spell it in any case.

Got the birth certificate
District Chorlton Ardwick 21 Sept 1861 William Thomas Boy mother Ann Earley mother signed with a cross address 5 Lyons court Ardwick registered 19 October 1861

So if any one can find out who lived at 5 lyons court 1861 please
my luck they won't be there

Thank you

Looks to be below (unless there is another)...(1861 Census taken 7th April)

Thank you Chris

I can get that one up and check the streets round it
I've a feeling she might have come from Ireland ?? unmarried mother

it gives me some thing to go off

I think that may be a different Lyons Court.

Patrick Connor's neighbour Elizabeth Manchester at 1 Lyons court is still there in 1871 and 1881.

Ardwick isn't mentioned on Elizabeth's records in any of those three census years
