The address for this group and all the others on the same page is workhouse in the parish of Lady St Mary, Wareham. The enumerator seems to have used a standard census form and not the one designed for an institution.
Most of the adults have been recorded as "Head". Sarah's surname looks a bit more like Seymour and I think the surname of James, Elizabeth and George in Alner not Almer,
Sarah Seymour was born in Swanage and her two children in parish of Lady St Mary, Priscilla, Henry and the Alner children are all from Tonerspuddle (sic). I suspect there is no connection between the Seymours and the rest, they just got recorded together on the form.
But it may give a link between Alners and Cakes. All are orphans

[Richard Knott]

Henry Cake was baptised in Wareham (15 May 1846), son of Mary Ann Cake, but his abode was the workhouse in 'Tonnerspuddle'.

A Mary Ann Cake, age 22, was buried in the Wareham workhouse on 30 Dec 1848.

Mary Ann appears to have had a daughter, Jane in Oct 1845, baptised in Tolpuddle, although she may be the Jane Cake buried in Wareham (the enry after Mary Ann's burial) in Apr 1849, although the age (1) is wrong.

In 1861 Priscilla 19 is down as granddaughter to Richard and Francis Cake

There are two Mary Ann Cakes baptised in Turners Puddle within a couple of years of each other.
The 1824 one was daughter of Richard and Frances so she fits with being Pricilla's mother. The other was in 1826 daughter of Thomas and Mary.
FindMyPast has the 30 Dec 1848 burial at Turner's Puddle, maybe it was actually at TP but her residence before death was the workhouse.
Although the age doesn't quite match with the Mary Ann (Pricilla's mother) better match for other Mary Ann. If she died in the workhouse, they may not have known her age accurately. There is a Mary Ann Cake who marries a William Horlock in Dorchester RD in 1855. Maybe she's the 1826 one.
