This is the closest I can find for 1891 - I think the name is Louise spelt phonetically - the mother is Ida which  seemed promising

1891 56 Leopole St St Giles Reading RG12/996  84/32
Alfred Reeves head M 33 Gasfitter Berks Reading
Ida do wife M 15 London Kentish Town
Louie do daur 5 scholar Berks Reading (I don't think the enumerator could write or spell
Albert do son 3 scholar  do do
Walter do son 1          do do

Same family 1901
40 London St St Giles Reading  RG13/1148 33/3
Alfred Reeves Head M 42 GasFitter Berks Reading
Ida do wife M 32 Kentish Town London
Louisa do daur S 15 Berks Reading
Albert do son S 13 Tin Packer Berks Reading
Walter do son S 11 Berks Reading
Arthur do son 10 do do
Leonard do son 7 do do
Rose do daur 4 do do

There is an Edith Louisa Reeves in 1901 - age 16, mother Louisa Jane - but I think the one above is a slightly better fit.
