Hi and welcome to Rootschat

George was the illegitimate son of Drusilla Jones.  It wasn't unheard of for illegitimate children to make up a fathers name when they married so they appeared "respectable"

Per IGI at www.familysearch.org

GEORGE JONES  Christening:  20 JUN 1858   St Andrew, Worcester   Mother:  DRUSILLA JONES 

Drusilla was the daughter of James & Lucy Jones


DRUSILLA JONES  Christening:  19 JUL 1837   All Saints, Worcester   Father:  JAMES JONES   Mother:  LUCY 
 
In 1861 - 3yr old George is living with grandmother Lucy

Lucy Jones 47 widow b Stourport
Priscilla 14  b Stourport
William 11  b Stourport
Thomas 13  b Stourport
Harriet 10 b St Andrews Worcs
Nancy Bishop mother 78 b Shrewsbury
George Jones 3 grandson b St Andrews Worcs

Many thanks CaroleW, this info will be a great help.
I had viewed the 1861 census info but did not make the connection.
