I looked up Edward Cavanagh in the 1911 Census for Whiston & Prescott in Lancashire on
April 2, 1911:
Cavanagh, Edward, 37, single, coal miner, born PRESCOT, Lancashire
Dates in the 1800's were notoriously off .

Hi,
I am trying to trace an Edward Cavanagh whom married Jane Grundy nee Ainscough
in Wigan in 1919, address was Turner's Yard. His marriage Certificate states he
was born c.1878 a coal miner, father James Cavanagh, Ag.Lab. However a death in
Wigan in 1937, if this is him, makes his date of birth 1872/1873. Can anyone
help as I have been stuck on this for over 12 months now. The only thing i can
think of doing is order all birth certificates for this period in the name of
Edward Cavanagh but this is costly and will not help if he was born in Ireland!
