Your Elijah 1834 in the 1881 census was a quarryman. He many have cut stone for a church or municipal building.

Correction - you have a couple children attributed to Samuel 1758 & Sarah Vincent that belong with his brother, James 1760.
James chr 15 Jun 1760 Nunney All Saints = Sarah ( )
children:
-Nancy bapt 18 May 1785 All Sts church at Nunney, Som to James & Sarah Silk
- Ednah Silk = William Joyce 25 Oct 1805 Nunney All Saints www.fromeresearch.org.uk/
-Job bapt 16 May 1802 All Sts church at Nunney, Som to James & Sarah Silk freereg.org
James 1760 was a witness to Samuel's wedding - Samuel Silk = Sarah Vincent 23 Apr 1781 All Saints church at Nunney, Som; witness - Robert Parsons, James Silk; she signs X. freereg.org

You have a Thomas 1753 that I would question if you have correct parents based on location (Jonathan 1724 & Elizabeth Newport)
Thomas bapt 28 May 1753 All Sts church at Nunney, Som to Jonathan Silk freereg.org
Thomas chr 28 May 1753 Norton-under-Hamdon, Som to Jonathan Silk of Odcombe, Som. [nr Yeovil] LDS labs I04517-8
perhaps this is his marriage:
Thomas Silk = Elizabeth Dolan 7 Sep 1777 Somersetshire LDS I02431-1

Interesting that Frederick Silk 1828 Marston was a Gardener in 1851 & 1861 (from family I thought ties to poster Barry Silk )
Eli Silk 1800 in 1861 was a Gardener in Nunney (an off-shoot of your line) Eli's father Jonathan 1762 was br. of your Samuel 1758.
