Hi. Could someone tell me where about to look on the Manchester map for Sealey Street. Many thanks.

Modern map or historical?
ie what year does the sealey street address refer to?

from Lan-opc baptisms ~1900 there's
Sealey St. off Queens Rd.
& Sealey Street, Miles Platting

It could be either. Now I have a pointer as to where to look, it will be of great help. Many thanks.

Do you have your family on a census? If so what is the next street recorded?

I just have a death certificate. The family are living at a different address on the 1901 census. I have now found the street on an old Manchester map. Many thanks.

It was off Baguley Street in Collyhurst:

But Collyhurst isn’t Miles Platting .

Collyhurst started on the left side of Oldham Road, at Great Ancoats Street  from the top of Oldham Street to Queens Road and extended to the left to Rochdale Road.
Sealey Street was changed to or from Baguely St.
On my map of around 1930 ish, it says Sealey St,Manchester 9,then in italics
Baguely St.
Now whether it had been Baguely St then became Sealey St or the other way round I don’t know.
Hope this helps .

On A-Z's, " A street name, followed by the name of another street in italics, does not appear on the map, but will be found adjoining or near the latter".

Sealey street is in what was known, and still is, known as Monsall, although, in the past it was often referred to as Collyhurst. I think it was sometimes referred to as Miles Platting with being near the end of Queens Road. I had ancestors who lived in that area and at the end of Collyhurst Road, just before the railway, and they both mentioned Miles Platting on occasions.

There was the old district of Newton not quite Newton Heath .
The Etihad stadium is just in that area .
Newton Heath starts on the other side of Hume Hall Lane, ( nothing to do with the district of Hulme  !)
Newton was between Miles Platting and Newton Heath .
I used to live there .
The area over Queens’Road to the right as you travel to Rochdale Road becomes Monsall .
