Who did the John Formby born about 1867 in either Altcar or Liverpool marry? Where is he on a census?

Gibel

He married Ann Finch in 1888 - she died in 1897 leaving him with three children (Jane, William, Margaret). He's on the 1891 census at 29 Camden Street, Bootle (a timber carter, born Liverpool) and in 1901 at Canal Bank, Lydiate (a teamsman, born Formby - sorry, noticed I had written Altcar on here yesterday, this is where his son was born!  :-[).

St Marie's RC Chapel, Lydiate. 29th October 1888. That's from a copy of the cert that's been in the family for decades so we know it's the correct one. Ann is noted as Annie on the cert which is what she was always known as. Annie was from Downholland.
