I wonder if this could be Clara Jane Davis in the 1881 census using her middle name:-

Mother's name: Jane Davis
Gender: Female
Where born: Dorking, Surrey, England

Lizzie West 12, lodger
Emma West 8, lodger
Amos West 4, lodger
Thomas Southern 26, lodger
Kezia Southern 24, lodger
Phoebe Southern 3, lodger
Sheba Southern Younger Than 1, lodger

You can see that Clara Jane has a sister called Isabella whom she may have named her daughter after. There is also a Kesia in the household who could have been the reason for her other daughter being named Kesiah. There is also Pheobe. If she was brought up in the same household as these people she may have thought of Kesia and Phoebe as siblings even if they weren't.

Just something to think about really and would need checking.

This looks like the death of Clara Jane's husband:-

Name: Henry T Ticknor
Estimated birth year: abt 1880
Year of Registration: 1913
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
Age at Death: 33
District: Epsom

A couple of possibilities for the death of the child which the 1911 census says was born and died to the marriage of Clara Jane (although the spelling of the surname is now Tickner instead of Ticknor but this is probably just a mis-transcription as there is no Ticknor death recorded in the correct time-frame):-

Name: Dorothy F Tickner
Estimated birth year: abt 1910
Year of Registration: 1910
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Age at Death: 0
District: Reigate
County: Surrey
Volume: 2a
Page: 114

or:-

Name: Male Tickner
Estimated birth year: abt 1911
Year of Registration: 1911
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
Age at Death: 0
District: Epsom
County: Surrey
Volume: 2a
