Hi Jim,
It seems that you have quite a puzzle here. You don't say where you found the information about William Lane's military service and how you know that he is "the right William Lane". Using the info you gave about Peterborough,
I found a Keziah Lane(in 1881 Cen.) living with her son and family, BUT,
there is a big problem  . This Keziah with son, James Ashton, is 60 years old, which means she was born about 1821. The William Lane whose army record you have would have been born about 1837-38, which makes him a lot younger than Keziah and only about 5 years older than her son. Is this likely? Is there any possibility that you have the wrong William Lane? It is a rather common name.
I did a bit of searching in FreeBMD. Found a William Lane born in Peterborough, Mar. quarter 1838(Vol.15 P. 344) (
the one that served in the army?) Also a death of a William Lane June Q. 1865 (3b 155) and death of a Keziah Lane, Sept. Q. 1898 (3b 143), age 78 (right age for the lady who was living with son James in 1881 Cen.), but if you found her still alive in 1901, it can't be her.
Aaaargh! There's something very wrong here. Your best bet would be to send for the marriage cert. as that will give the
name of William Lane's father, and William's place of birth and age. Once you have that info. you can trace William's birth and ancestry.
Someone has sent you one possible marriage. You might check 1837online to get the volume and page numbers and to see if there are any other likely marriages. I could not find any on FreeBMD, but it is not yet complete.
Hope you are not now totally confused. 
Cheers,
Carmela

From your information regarding Frome, I am guessing this is Keziah in 1871. Looks like William was dead by then. Do you know what the connection is with the Brooks family, or whose child Clara is? Could she be Kezias?

Keziah Lane 1822 Wid, Amersham, Oxfordshire, Boarder Frome Somerset former domestic servant
Clara Lane 1862 Frome, Somerset, Boarder Frome Somerset
I haven't been able to find her in 1901 - where did you find her? I also thoink she died in 1898 as per Carmela posting

Looks like William Brooks may have married Elizabeth LANE - could be Williams sister?

From the IGI these are all possible siblings of Kezia - all father George Ashton, looks like he may have married twice - two wives, Hannah and Elizabeth (or two different families)

Hi,
Sorry for the late posting!
RE: "... Looks like William Brooks may have married Elizabeth LANE - could be Williams sister?..."
Yes, Elizabeth IS William's sister.
Their parents James LANE (b. 1806 in Somerset) and Sarah BURGE (b. circa 1801 in Somerset) had three children that I can find ->
1. Sarah Anne LANE (b. circa 1832) married James RUSSELL in 1853 (date TBC)
2. William LANE (b. circa 1837)
3. Elizabeth LANE (b. circa 1845) married William BROOKS in 1868.
I believe (still to be confirmed!) that James LANE's parents were William LANE and Sarah BUCK and he had a brother Joseph LANE (b. 1807) who married Sarah BURGE's sister Ann BURGE. There may also have been another brother named Stephen.
Thanks so much for this posting - I was wondering who Keziah and Clara were when they appeared in 1871 census I downloaded! Had not done any searching yet on William.
Jim, I would absolutely love a copy of William's military and discharge papers etc if that is at all possible?
Kind regards,
Karen
