That would be her-it's an unusual name..Many thanks for your time.I'm wondering-does it say whether Elizabeth is a widow?

I'm hoping for a couple of look-ups please: William Henry Kelly ,born Calstock, Cornwall around 1864 and Johana Menhennet,born about 1867 in Plymouth . In 1881 Johana is attending a school for orphans so I'm hoping the 1871 census will have her with her parents. Many thanks for any information on either of them.
