I was just about to post the following info which I found on the 1881 census when I was scanning Knutsford Road in Warrington where I live. I came across the info below and decided to post it on the board in the hope it would be of help to somebody and I have just found your message. Probably not your John Teare, but anyway here goes:
John Teare Joiner born Ramsey aged 42
Wife Mary from Grappenhall
George son aged 17
John son aged 15
Daughter Amy aged 9
Frank Bate a nephew (stonemason) from Stockton Heath
Visitor George Wilson from Layton in Lancashire.
Address: 121 Knutsford Road Latchford Warrington
Looks like this John Teare was born about 1839 but could just as easily be 1940 depending on when census was taken etc.
