On earlier census Edward can be found under the surname Abrams.

In 1891 in 11 Foggs Lane:

Class: RG12; Piece: 3060; Folio 44; Page 13; GSU roll: 6098170.

Edward Abrams c1860 St Helens, Coal Miner
Jane c1862 Wigan
John Fairhurst c1883 Wigan, Son
Edward Abrams c1886 Wigan
Elizabeth c1888 Wigan
Richard c1890 Wigan
James? c1890 Wigan

In 1881 and 1871 there is a possible named Abrams with his parents in Hindley, and in 1861 the same Edward is indexed as Abrahams and living in Unstone, Derbyshire
