Name Lewis BOALER Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 12 Dec 1894 Preston Brook, Cheshire, England 
- Date from 1939 register and death registration index
GRO ref: Boaler, Lewis q1 1895 Runcorn RD 8a 217; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Povey
Shown in the 1901 census as born Preston Brook, in 1911 as born Daresbury, in 1921 as born Preston on the Hill. Both Prestons, which adjoin one another, were on the edge of the Runcorn conurbation, but in the largely rural parish of Daresbury so there is little contradiction.

Details from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 15 Feb 2017)
A note added in the margin on 11 July 1913 shows the groom as 'Hyssett or Hysant otherwise Boaler' - Lewis is stated as being present as 'Lewis Boaler' and both he and his wife signed the correction using the surname Boaler.
The 1911 census shows they had had just 3 sons, who were all with them in the 1901, 1911 and 1921 censuses. Given that Sarah was 47 at the time of the 1911 census and it was about 15 years since their last son was born I think it safe to assume there were no other children.
