Title: was there a Mill Street in Warrington ?
Post by: plimmerian on Tuesday 19 February 13 19:16 GMT (UK)
my ancestors married at St Elphin in 1890 and both have the address as Mill Street - I presume this was in Warrington as no other detail is listed in the address column - does anyone know where it was?

thanks

The only Mill St I know is Golborne, which adrress states as Mill St, Golborne, Warrington. :-\

Mill Lane in Newton, I discarded this idea as it seemed the address was a Warrington address (no Golborne / Lowton / Newton etc added to it) and as it was "street" not "lane" - just really puzzled

It comes up on the 1891 Census - in parish of St Paul's

On the face of it there was a Mill Street in Warrington

1891 Census has 2 Mill Street, Warrington as the BLue Lion Inn.

Will see if I can find anything else
