Just an update on this posting I still haven't found a birth record but I have found a Christening Record which states the birth date. Charles Edward Shufflebottom was born on 23rd February 1880.
He was christened in Liverpool in 1884. He had a sister who died in Lisburn, Co Antrim in November 1880 (aged 2). So he must have been there when he was a baby however the census record states that he was born in England and he was always adamant in his lifetime that he was born in Manchester.

Hi there

Just to say I have found the marriage record for Charles Shufflebottom and Mary Chambers  !!!

They were married on 11th July 1886 - later than I thought - after they had their children. I found the record on family search I had looked previously and found nothing - just got it this week - just shows how you have to keep digging away. There is a photographic record of the banns and the dates - so exciting! Although I can't find the record on the bmd registers. Also as usual every time you find a piece of new info it throws up more ques than answers - re locations, why they decided to marry then - he died 3 months later.

Just need to find his son's birth certificate now.

Hi
William Shufflebottom married Elizabeth Speight at St Jude Manchester in 1930.

Do you have any more information about him? Was he born in Manchester? Do you know when and where he died? I have had a quick look for a bith in 1997 and can't see one in Manchester.

I can't find any records for St Jude online so you might need to buy the marriage certificate. I suggest that you start a new thread and ask if anyone could do a look up for you in Manchester.
