That is confusing!

I think this may, possibly, be the family in 1880, although the wife's name is transcribed wrongly:

        Household:

Name        Relation        Marital Status        Gender        Race        Age        Birthplace        Occupation        Father's Birthplace       Mother's Birthplace
Benjamin ROBINSON         Self         M         Male         W         40         NEW YORK         Mason         SCOTLAND         NEW YORK
Theressa ROBINSON         Wife         M         Female         W         37         ENGLAND         Keeping House         ENGLAND         ENGLAND
Willard ROBINSON         Son         S         Male         W         9         ILLINOIS         At School         NEW YORK         ENGLAND
Sussie ROBINSON         Dau         S         Female         W         7         ILLINOIS         At School         NEW YORK         ENGLAND

- shows Benjamin G. Robinson married Clarissa Edwards, 1870 in Cook County. I guess if you looked at the original 1880 census image it might look like 'Clarissa' rather than 'Theressa'.

There appears to be a Clarissa Edwards in the 1860 Chicago Ward 1, Cook County, IL census. I don't have access to the full info, but approx from index:

Frank Edwards, 42, b. England
Hannah, 54, b. England
Clarissa, 16, b. England
Jas M, 14 (not sure of birthplace, apparently not England).
