This seems clear that you were correct in thinking she was a Cameron who married a Cameron, since both her father and her husband were Camerons!

The 1862 poorhouse application that I directed you to should hopefully give more details about Fanny -

Fanny Cameron, Elizabeth's mother applied in 1862 but I didn't have time to look at it. The reference is D HEW 10/3/25 page 131. If you contact The Mitchell they will quote (it isn't expensive) you a price and send you a copy.
