His first wife must have died.

In free BMD there is a marriage - looking between 1907 and 1908 - for him and Mary Jane Gregory registered June quarter 1907 Lewisham District :-)

I have now found George in 1911, with differently named wife but same sort of age and same birthplace, I think, though only married three years! Image on its way to you, always nice to see an ancestor's signature and actual writing.

The census details are from the ancestry site - well worth subscribing to it if one can afford it - in 1901 they have a sister-in-law Henrietta Green with them - looks promising :-)

Enham Alamein is a village and civil parish about 2½ miles north of Andover in the north of Hampshire, England. It was named "Knight's Enham" until 1945.
About a kilometre south along the A343 road from the current site of Enham Alamein is the dein of Knight's Enham. This is a small collection of 3 or 4 houses and a 12th century church. It is currently (2009) on the north edge of the suburban spread of Andover.
Enham Alamein and Upper Enham are the south and north ends of a village which is a little over a kilometer long

And I still used to prefer searching the big books of indexes at the (since closed) Family Records Centre in London, turning the pages, one by one then eureka found him / her / them! to doing it on the internet.

If you cannot narrow it down as they were both born different parts of the country and then living in London you may have to buy one of the childrens birth certs to find it

In 1861 he was in Westminster. I think in free BMD there is a marriage for his name and an Elizabeth in Westminster.
