It looks to me like George may have been brought up by his grandparents.

1901 2 Rose Cottage - next door was 19 Bristol Terrace, Gelligaer.  No 20 was Rosehill Cottage at a  later date.  This is the address of George`s mother Mary Maria Watkins on the CWGC site.

John Price, Head, Wid, 70, Coal Hewer, Mon Blackwood
John Price, Son, S, 44, Coal Hewer, Bedwis
Isaac Janes, Boarder, S, 53, Coal Hewer, Glam. Rhigwern?
MARY MARIA WATKINS, Wid, 46, Housekeeper, County Not Known Desborough and then someone has written Bucks next to it.  It is actually Northamptonshire.

Mary Maria Conway aged 6 was born Desboro* Northamptonshire in the 1861 census - parents George and Elizabeth and living in Kinnersley Herefordshire.

Sorry keyboard86! Mary Ann, but Mary Maria on the baptism..

Have found the memorial on the CGWC site and mother is definitely Mary Maria, and dad George Frederick has died.

Hi Deidre, if you follow George and Elizabeth back or Mary Maria in 1861 then birth places of George and Elizabeth same as 1881!

 :-[ Sorry, I'd better drop out of this one, I'll just read any updates (I'm keen to know if anyone finds George junior).

 :) Hi Deidre, if the 2 census returns you found for 1891/1901 were George aged 4/14 with also a brother William both shown in 1891/1901 as Grandchildren to a George & Ellen, then I think you have already located him?!

Census ref 1891 RG12/2066/15/7
Census ref 1901 RG13/2485/14/5

PS so it looks like Mary Maria Conway had a child prior to marriage?
