I couldn't find Beasley St but I googled it and came up with this. Looking further in to it it looks like it could be around Peasley Cross somewhere.

Many old records were hand written and sometimes the writer put down what they thought the street names were.
I suspect it was actually Peasley Street.

Thanks Bridger & Hort,
thats a good tip about misspelling you find a lot of similar mistakes on old BMD certificates. I'll have another look on old maps.

As far as I'm aware there wasn't a Beasley or Peasley St in St Helens.
I think it may be Peasley Cross Road but who knows
Go to the very top of the forum and point to Genealogy> Census Indexes, you should be able to search for address on a few of those.

Try searching the 1881 census in the Genealogy section and see what address it gives there...
