Edith was not recorded with the family in the 1881 census return, although she is present in the 1901 return. There is an Edith Lovelock at a household at 51 Fendall Street, which is quite close to Lucey Rd (where James & Elizabeth and the rest of the family were recorded in 1881) and is also just across the road (50 Fendall St) from where James' parents George and Priscilla Lovelock were living in 1881. The age doesn't match (Edith, dau of James & Elizabeth would have been age 4 in 1881) but this could be a transcriber error. The relevant 1881 census entry is:

Dwelling: 51 Fendall St Census Place: Bermondsey, Surrey, England Source: FHL Film 1341128 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 0562 Folio 46 Page 27 Marr Age Sex Birthplace William BURGESS M 54 M Bristol, Gloucester, England Rel: Head Occ: Skinner Eliza BURGESS M 52 F Bristol Rel: Wife William BURGESS U 28 M Bristol Rel: Nephew Occ: Laborer Eliza DAVIS U 18 F Bristol Rel: Niece Occ: Box Maker (Wood) Edith LOVELOCK 11 F Bermy, Surrey, England Rel: Niece

Following examination of the original image for the 1881 entry for 51 Fendall Street in June 2010 it was confirmed that Edith's age was recorded as 4, NOT 11, and that an error had therefore crept into the LDS transcription.

Thus the Edith in that entry is confirmed as the daughter of James and Elizabeth, and the entry itself reads:
