We believe that this is Eliza daughter of William Peacock and Sarah Nichols, and that Machin, Kent is really Matching Essex. Sometime after this Eliza has an Illegitimate son called William.

It is likely that Matilda gave the facts in this Census. Thus William Peacock (aged 65) would have been listed as father in law, while strictly he is the father of the head of the house.
William (aged 18) is the illegitimate son of Eliza Peacock, daughter of William and sister of James.
