Maybe he was called Williams whilst Eliza was married to William and it stuck? (except for when he was called Russell!!)
Thing is, we never know if the enumerator got his wires crossed when taking the info. It must have been easy to make an assumption about a surname and get it wrong.
Any ideas on what his birthplace actually is?
