Robert Scott, born Edlesborough, Buckinghamshire + Daughter Elizabeth Jane Scott born 1861 Peshawar, India

Classification: Query
Surnames: Scott
In the England 1871 Census they are living a 10 Bolsover Street, Portland Place, St Marylebone, London. Robert gives his age as 37, his birth place as Edlesborough, Buckinghamshire and Elizabeth was 10 born in India. "Wife" Ellen was also on the record, age 26, born Hemel Hempstead. Can find no trace of Robert's marriage to Ellen but what I am hoping someone can help especially with, is Robert Scott with a daughter born in India. The only Robert Scott (he has been extensively researched by others), was married to Catherine Agatha McIntosh and one of their children was a daughter Elizabeth Jane born 1861 in India who supposedly died in 1870 in India. Were there two Robert Scott's who had daughters separately born in India in 1861 giving each the same name! They appear together only on this Census but Elizabeth Jane goes on to marry in 1882 (address 10 Bolsover Street) and repeats her birth place of Peshawar on every subsequent Census after 1871 - of Robert born in Edlesborough, Bucks, there is no further trace. Any clues anyone?
