He's actually living with an Armitage family. The head of household being a gardener. I suspect that Elizh is their servant, not Ed's.

I did a quick look on ancestry.

Neither of them leaps out.

BUT even if we could find them,

a) 1841 does not tell you the actual relationship between people living in the same house. You have to assume who is parent and child.


and b) if they were born in 1818, neither of them was very probably not living at home
