On Ancestry she's transcribed as Edith Kill. Original is Judith Kill.

Edit: I agree, isn't George a cutie? Or should I say wasn't he a cutie!

Is this her

As you said a possible transcription error, but it does looks like Kill on the original, perhaps the enumerator misheard

On 1841 census I have Judith Keel, aged 50 a widow living Brashfield Hamlet. Living with her are George 24, Sarah 14, William 11 and David 8. Judith died 1858 regd. Romsey, Hants BUT I just cannot locate her on 1851 census. I have tried the obvious name, tried Kale and even tried just Judith and her year of birth, but I just cannot find her. Neither can I find the other residents. I am assuming the surname has been mistranscribed but cannot think what alternative has been transcribed. She could of course have been missed off altogether.
