Doing an address search for Back Croft Street (I also tried variations!) anywhere in Lancashire in 1881 comes up with just 1 hit - Ashton under Lyne.

I have looked at all the families listed - no Stephenson (or variation).

Padsiham is in Burnley district, but Croft Street in Burnley only goes up to number 58.

Croft Street in Manchester only shows houses 6 to 9.

In fact none of the streets beginning Croft have a house number anywher near 99?  ???

I am trying to pursue her husband James Jones who says he was born in Holywell in 1861 but I have sent for every birth certificate for that year in Holywell and none are correct,will

What was the name of his father on the marriage certificate?

The 1891 census says he is aged 30, so he could have been born in 1860?
Hi His father is Joseph,but I have not been able to pair them up in any census welsh or english, I may end up sending for every birth certificate in 1860 -1863

Why? That's very expensive!
Just state on the form the father's name you require. No matches = no cost!

You can also search, and order from, www <dot> northwalesbmd.org.uk

He's quite consistent with his name and place of birth, 1860 Holywell Flintshire.   

In 1901 they're at 38 Nelson St, so didn't move far.
