If these addresses are in Ancoats Manchester, there is a Goulden Street, presumably where the Buildings were, and Allum Street quite close to each other.
 See here http://www.artus-familyhistory.com/source/Early%20Maps.html. Click on the Manchester 1930 map, then section 2C.
Find the junction of Oldham street and Great Ancoats street. Go along Oldham St until you come to the 'L' of  Oldham just above that is Goulden Street. Now go down Great Ancoats St and to the right of the 2nd letter 'A' in Ancoats, you will find Allum Street.

Thank you Pat and everyone. The map link is excellent and will come in useful, since a lot of my ancestors on both sides came from that area.

Many thanks to everyone who has helped so far.
Can I be cheeky and ask if anyone can help me make out John's occupation please?

I can read most of his wedding certificate. His wife'd details are easy to read, so are both father's details. John's address and his occupation is totally eluding me.

It seems to read Machion Moulder? On the 1861 census he is a tile cutter, and in 1863 when he went to prison for 3 days for being drunk he is listed as being a tile cutter. I'm assuming his occupation when he married would be in the same trade, or linked to it.

His address seems to say 11 Gouldens Buildings? though I'm not certain of that either?
Any ideas please?

Can anyone help to decipher this extract from the prison record of my Gt x2 Granddad John Weir please... He was only 19 and drunk, so not that bad considering

Many thanks in advance
Bev

can anyone help me decipher this extract please.
I can read the names but not the address - I've included the family above in case it helps with the address.
my family are Dorothy Burns with her second husband James, her daughter Susannah, son James and Robert Parr the son-in-law. I can't make out the occupations and it looks to me as if Susannah is married, but Brotherdale is definitely her maiden name and Dorothy's first married name. It also looks as though there is an entry for Susannah in the last column for infirmities, or could that just be an error or comment?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance

Find My Past has him down as a "writer on glass" same as my earlier suggestion it seems.

Hi Carol, yes thank you for that, I've been struggling with broadband last couple of days. taking ages to load the pages, then trying to reply, freezing out!... FINALLY, I can answer you. It makes sense, for him to be an Etcher, or glass engraver. I thought at 18 he might still be apprentice, and nowadays he would be, but back then, I suppose he would have started his apprenticeship at a very young age. My Gran always remembered him as a Glass blower, so I assume that was a job for the older men to do, being more dangerous.

Thank you everyone for your input.
