There
seems to be a mistake on this census as Elizabeth,
on subsequent censuses, was not born in Dorset. The
'Y' and 'N' may have been entered into the wrong
row. However, it is known that the son John, was
born in Ireland, perhaps William was born there as
well.

The
above entry led me to conclude that this was
Edward's daughter Eliza, perhaps with an aunt. From
later information on censuses, this proved to be
correct.
