As already posted by Shirley, Mary Livis is on Pennington Lane in 1901 - so possibly in Burton Wood Cottages:

Mary Livis
in the 1901 England Census
Name: Mary Livis
[Mary Lewis]
Age: 18
Estimated birth year: abt 1883
Relation to Head: Visitor
Gender: Female
Birth Place: St Helens, Lancashire, England
Civil Parish: Burtonwood
Ecclesiastical parish: St Michael
County/Island: Lancashire
Country: England
Street address: Pennington Lane
Occupation:
Registration district: Warrington
Sub-registration district: Sankey
ED, institution, or vessel: 1

Page Number: 5
Household schedule number: 22

Jane Cartwright 25
George Livis Cartwright 3
John Thomas Cartwright 1
Mary Livis 18



The first page of this set of 41 pages of records, where all the streets, houses, etc are listed, mentions "Evans New Cottages, otherwise called Burton Wood Cottages".

I can't see Evans New Cottages listed specifically in the 41 pages of the set.
However, going by the list of streets/houses on page 1, it looks as if they are somewhere between pages 5 and 12, although not named.
Mary Livis in Pennington Lane is on page 6.

None of the houses are numbered, which doesn't help.

I don't see any Mugan listed.

There's a James Morgan on page 13, but born in Wales, not Ireland.

Thank you SO much for all this information, it will be a great help, i am trying to help sort out these Mugan families for a friend. He does have the marriage cert for 1901 in Warrington for James Mugan and Mary Levis/lewis. will check out address. Looks like Thomas may have married Levis also, will need this cert.

Its difficult as James Mugan and John Mugan i suspect brothers married Mary's in the same year 1873 in Charlestown, both occupation the same and called all the children same christian names I have marriage record of John father Thomas but not James his marriage only a Church record with no fathers names listed, looks like they all came over to Lancashire.

Thanks again
