Looks like it is Henry Not Herry.

Hi I've managed to trace my great grandparents, Archibald and Ann Crawford. However, in the 1901 census, it says they have an Elizabeth Herry (or possibly Henry?) living with them, who is marked as 13 years old and a related as a sister. This confuses me - why does she have a different last name? She can't have been married at 13 (or could she?). I'm pretty new to this ancestry stuff, but would be grateful if anyone could help me understand this. Thanks!
