Shadrach Critchley married Elizabeth Banks at St Wilfreds, Standish 1875.
Q2 1875 Wigan 8c 56 (GRO Ref)

I wonder if the name of his wife in 1901 is an error, I don't see another marriage for Shadrach between 1891 and 1901, but then I haven't searched all the images, just checked the transcribed index.  There is another marriage for a Shadrach in 1906 to Annie Heaton, in Leigh.

I think this family is the wrong one

1871 15 Gt Newton Street, Newton, Lancashire
Hemery Critchley Head M 46 Coal Miner Lancashire Standish
Jane Wife M 44 Lancashire Wigan
Benjamin Son Unm 24 Coal Miner " "
Shadrick son " 21 " " "
Margaret daur Unm 18 Match Maker " "
Ann daur " 16 Cotton Power Loom Weaver " "
John son " 14 Calico Pinters Asst. " "
Louisa daur 12 Half time at match works half time in school " "
Mary daur 7 Scholar " "
Elizabeth daur 3 Lancashire Newton Heath
Nancy daur 10 Half time at match works half time in school " Wigan
Martha daur 2 Lancashire Newton Heath
 RG10; Piece: 4057; Folio: 51; Page: 25

This is a different family but might be the right one
In 1861 Engine Row, Standish
John Critchley Head M 47 Coal Miner Lancashire Heskin
Ellen Wife M 47 Lancashire Blackrod
Henry Son 14 Coal Pit Drawer " Standish
Shadrack Son 11 Scholar " "
Margaret daur 9 " " "
Thomas son 5 " " "

Boarding next door with Mary Kershaw is George Critchley a 75 year old Widower, Coal Carter born Eccleston.

Next door to that is 26 year old Richard Critchley Coal Miner born Standish

More Critchleys living in the street also.

You need to establish with the marriage certificate which one of the two families is the correct Shadrach before we can go further.
