I think it's Edwin - try comparing letters in the word with others on the image that you are sure about.
 If you compare the second letter with the "d" a the end of the word "Established" they are very similar.  The writer only gives his d's short "stalks". 

Also he doesn't always put put a dot over his i's.

My money is on Edwin, at the very first sight   :)

I'm also sure he's the one found by subee on the 1891 census.

OK, I'm convinced! ;D
(Especially since I can't find anybody by the name of Eauan).
I'll start trying to find out a bit more about Edwin.
Many thanks for all of your help.

(And I can post images :P)
