The 1881 census shows a second girl:

Looking at the actual census image, I wouldn't swear that the age of the head, George Owens, is 42. It could be 62 in my opinion.
Maybe he IS 42 after all ... I see he's staying with the family on the 1901 census, now as brother in law, aged 62 ... and he's 50 in 1891.
