On the GRO site, there are 3 illegitimate births for John Edward Jones in 1875 +/- 1yr.

You can download PDF’s of certs for mother’s name……….if you think she would actually have registered his birth. Until 1875, there were no penalties for not doing so.

Nothing to do with your query, and I know you said you didn't want any pre-1921 info - but just because I came across it -

The daughter May, whom you mentioned - 1899, not 1898:

JONES, MAY mmn CROPPER
GRO Reference: 1899 J Quarter in OLDHAM Volume 08D Page 665

Is this her death?

JONES, MAY 0
GRO Reference: 1900 M Quarter in NANTWICH Volume 08A Page 275


You haven't mentioned a daughter Florence - did you know about her?
(You've done such a lot of research that I expect you do, though you didn't mention her.)


JONES, FLORENCE mmn CROPPER

Argyllgran, yes I have this info , this is John Edward with his wife Elizabeth, it is may the daughter who died as a infant and then they had florence, from what I can gather Elizabeth moved to rochdale's with florence and was living there with her sister and family,
John must have then moved back to oldham were he then began a relationship with Mary and had their children, Mary used Elizabeth's name to pass herself off as John's wife,
John & Mary stayed together until his death in 1927 she stayed in the same house until her death
