Maybe this is a possible scenario:-

For reference, from FODFHT

From GR 1871 Census, Paradise Buildings, Holmer, Hereford

Thomas DAVIES, Head, Mar, 45, Labourer, b. Glostershire, East Dean
Ann, Wife, Mar, 49, Glostershire, Winchcombe
William, Son, Un, 14, Scholar, Glostershire, East Dean,
Elizabeth NEWELL, Grand daur, Un, 10, Scholar, Glostershire, East Dean

On the face of it (and neglecting complications such as step-children) Elizabeth NEWELL would have to be the child of a daughter of Thomas DAVIES. So perhaps Mary Ann NEWELL was actually Mary Ann DAVIS when the child was born?

From GR 1861 Census, East Dean, Holy Trinity

Thomas DAVIS, Head, Mar, 33, Stone Quarrier, b. East Dean, Glos,
Ann, Wife, Mar, 37, Winchcombe
Mary Ann , Daughter, Un, 19,East Dean, Glos.
Christopher Thos, Son, Un, 10, East Dean, Glos.
James, Son, Un, 7, East Dean, Glos
William, Son, Un, 4, East Dean, Glos
Elizabeth, Daughter, 2m, East Dean, Glos.

Since the name NEWELL was taken up perhaps Mary Ann did eventually marry a William NEWELL. This is a good candidate,
