You didn't give any other family to compare but is this her I can find n-one called Killing but a family called Kelling so this is the nearest

Charles L ?Kelling?Killing head marr 44 Butcher St Heliers Jersey
Eliza  wife marr 48 Butcher St Queens or St Owens (not sure)
Charles  son marr 22 Butcher St Heliers
Ann wife 25 marr Butcher England
Jane daur unm 17 St Heliers
Elize daur unm 4mnths St Heliers
Eliza daur unm 8 St Heliers


36 Roseville Street, St Helier, Jersey
RG10/5756 folio 7 page 5
I wonder due to the order they are written if Eliza age 4mnths belongs to Jane age 17

Just fyi, the transcription database at Ancestry has Eliza, Elize and Eliza all listed as "Elija".  Duh.

I've submitted corrections for each, with the following explanation:

Obvious; the "i" is dotted, not the "z", and female persons are not named "Elija".  The surname appears to be Kelling, but may be Killing.
