Could somebody have a look at the 1881 census for me please? I might be having a funny half hour, but I can't quite see whats going on!

I searched for Alice Wakefield born c1880 in St Pancras/Somerstown ( on GR records). She showed up quite clearly on Search Results, but when I clicked on View Image, what I got was Stephen Wakefield, head of household, right at the bottom of the page - no other family. I then searched for Fanny Wakefield, her mother, who was a widow by 1891, thinking I would get the next page, and got the same result - Stephen Wakefield at the bottom.

No problem, I thought, I'll look on Familysearch - but they didn't show up at all!

If I could be sure that Stephen was Alice's father, that would be fine, as that was what I was looking for, but I can't be sure can I? I don't have Ancestry any more, so would appreciate a sensible pair of eyes!
