i can't find a marriage for ellen rothwell to a sumner , as i'm trying to link the name with edward . but like you i can't find the link . so the record for edward may not belong to our edward .

What if she was cohabiting with the boarder? Maybe that's why they moved to Heath Charnock?

Remember the army record you found said Edward was b in Skelmersdale and we know the same Edward was lying about his age in 1914 and had a grandmother called Ellen and a connection to a Mr Summer/Sumner.
