1871 census RG10 198 folio 37
10 Kilburn Priory Hampstead St John  London 
Elizabeth Chant  40  Sherborne, Dorset,  Domestic Servant  Married
Robert W Chant  15  St Andrews, Middlesex,  Servant  at a chemist

Though Elizabeth is indicating she is married there is a possibility she was a widow by 1871, or perhaps her marriage had 'broken up'. If Robert senior was around, as a 'singleton' he would be harder to find.

Regards
