What about the aunt Ann Townsend who also gets one pound and one shilling.

added
There is a Mary daughter of Ephraim Seabrook and Eliza baptized 25 March 1727 (image 5)
Could be shortened from Elizabeth to Eliza to fit on the line

Registers are missing from 1703-1723

Hmmm ... so there's now ephraim's wife Elizabeth carter who could be a sister of jane's mother or father, Ann Townsend who could be a sister of ephraim's wife and Elizabeth smith's mother who could be a sister of ephraim. Elizabeth smith can't be Elizabeth carter's wife, I don't think, as unlikely two living sisters would both be called Elizabeth.

Essex Record Office
Dated 1820 documents refer to division of property and mentions Ephraim Seabrook and wife Elizabeth and Samuel Seabrook and wife Mary all of Dagenham. These are not digitized but might be worth the cost of copies as no will found for the Seabrook's apart from Elizabeth (spinster in 1755) already mentioned.
These kinds of documents often make reference to how the property was obtained establishing ownership of the title and may go back many years.

Ref:
D/DU 159/17
D/DU 159/18
D/DU 159/19
D/DU 159/21 notes final resolution
D/DU 159/22
There is also D/DU 159/20 but the index does not mention the Seabrook name. James Sharp and Stephen Joseph Collier and wife Elizabeth.

That's very good of you to find these. I think I need to establish how ephraim is related to Jane housden first though? Not having much luck with that on SEAX yet. However, I did discover Townsend baptisms in barking, so I am next looking up Townsend marriages to see if related to the housdens or to jane's mother. Don't have her surname as can't find her marriage to Thomas Housden. Must be around 1720 as first child born in 1724 and Thomas was born in 1795, so wouldn't be of age til 1816. If I could find this marriage, it would solve quite a few queries.
Love a good puzzle but this one is taking a while!
