Hi,

There is a marriage on Camdex for a John Loats and Elizabeth Johnson in 1843, so they could possibly be the niece Elizabeth Loats parents.

Have you looked at the CFHS baptism index. http://www.cfhs.org.uk/BaptismIndex/index.html

Whilst it is a bit vague you could find possible siblings for Frances and Saunders.  I just tried it using the surname Johnson and parish as  Camb. St.And.Ls.
