Just in case you haven't seen it, there's a post on the WOOD surname board made by a CRUMBLEHOLME living in Runcorn about William James CRUMBLEHOLME who married Eva Ellen Wood (nee' Tamlin). See http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/message/rw/surnames.wood/5962 There's a few (not many!) other posts regarding CRUMBLEHOLME scattered around the boards, but there doesn't seem to be a board devoted to that surname.
