Problem is there's lots of the same name living in Lancashire to identify the right man

My gran Mary Ann Gwilliam 1883 and James Ashton, 1880 I have now found on the 1911 censer living together ( Mum Gladys Gwilliam ) Knew the name of her Dad but it seems he was married , not sure if she ever met him as she lived with her Granma, can anyone give me any help finding the right family I would love to know what happened to him, did he go to war , I was surprised when it was on the 1911 census of them living together,
