It be nice if there was more information.
So agreed , probably not the one we are looking for .
They were on the same census district as the Rev Gornall in 1871. Another dead end.  ::)

Manchester rate books (dated in September 1871 and September 1872)
1871 has John Smith at 2 Smith Court

1872 has Mary Smith at 2 Smith Court
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-6GG9-S21

Had John died?
Mind you, all the other names are different.

Add in (October) 1873, no Smiths

Allum Street is close to Newton Street. Ancoats  A fire proof mill was there in 1863

In 1866 a waste warehouse burnt down . Close to Allum Street and Union Street.
It's in lots of newspapers.
Not much help really but just a clue to the location.

I don't know where to find Rate Books on Ancestry  ???

 you say have Mary Jane census after her marriage to James Cain.
I'm not finding one for certain
It would hopefully have where she was born.
None of the baptisms found have an abode which is not helping.
