Just in case you don't have this report. Friar Street, Everton is mentioned in one of the workhouse registers.

Liverpool Weekly Courier, (5 January 1878)

This one mentions Rebecca going into the workhouse hospital. Another report for the same crime mentions "certain title deeds relating to property in Boston, in Lincolnshire" were found in the couple's Friar Street house.
I wonder if the other report possibly confused Boston (Mass) with Lincolnshire?  ???

I didn't have either of these two reports, Ashtone, thank you. Where are you finding these? My searches on Newspapers.com and GenealogyBank are coming up empty - but maybe they don't have the papers I need in their collections. 

One thing that always bothered me was that their son, George, listed on a marriage application in 1929 that his parents were both deceased and that they resided in "Mass." (which I interpreted to be Massachusetts. I never could understand why he would list "Mass." as their last residence when they (or at least James) spent so much time in Philadelphia. Can you share the article that references Boston?

Here it is. I use FindMyPast for newspaper coverage. Does Newspapers.com have UK coverage?

thank you. Newspapers.com says they have UK coverage, but none of these have come up in my searches.
