So why does George Charles born 1905 have mother's maiden name BOON

Because his mother Jane Elizabeth Bryant grew up with her mother who was living with William BOON and was known as Boon for most of her life pre marriage.  Given this was her everyday name it is not difficult to image that she gave this name when registering the birth.  I have the birth cert and it is definitely her/him.

There are two Frederick/George Verriers - father and son.  The father was not present at Risinghill street in 1911 and Jane was described as widowed.  By 1921 he was back in the family home in Risinghill Street.  The son (who was much older than the other children) was not listed as a child when his father enlisted in 1919 as he was no longer a child and had in fact already married and enlisted himself.  He lived in Warren Street.

There is much fluidity with names in this family Frederick George (father) married as George and appeared as Frederick Charles on his daughter Ellens marriage record.  He had brothers called George and Charles so it is quite confusing but I have all the records and I am pretty sure all the military records belong to one or the other.  I just have no death record for the elder.

Hello again
 got my information about the Verrier born in 1835 who supposedly died in 1910 from a ancestry site ( I’ve attached pics) which has fitted with my mums research - but I’m puzzled about the date of death for 1910 it gives.

George John Verrier (sometimes Frederick I seem to remember) b. 1835 died in Jan 1910 in St Pancras workhouse

Its a while since I looked at the Verriers in detail so I would have to check properly

I think you will find that most of the information in ancestry trees originated from my trees which I started many years ago.

Hello Vixenday

Yes we are definitely related 😀 it’s very confusing with all the Frederick Georges but in summary Frederick who was married to Annie Wood had siblings- Mary Ann Maud, known as Maud, George who was disabled after an accident, and Ellen (b 1907) who was my grandmother.  Some people online have got her mixed up with the Ellen you mentioned but that is not the case. The parents of FG, Maud, George and Ellen were Frederick George and Jane Elizabeth Bryant.  I have never yet been able to pin down his death - I originally thought he died prior to the 1911 census because she is shown as a widow but then I found some army service records that seem to indicate he signed up during the war.

Everything else you have tied up with my research. 

My grandmother (Ellen), seemed to keep in touch with sister Maud and brother George and families but didn’t seem to be much in touch with Fred and Annie so much of what I know is by research and family stories 🙀

Hello

Can anyone help me with this will please.  I have the gist of it but there are some bits I just cant decipher

Thanks
