Hello Bronwen
If you look at the Wills for High Ercall there is one for George Colley 23.8.1682 of Isombridge
Wife Ann £10 and house and cottage for life?
Children
Sara £4
Humphrey £3 bapt 4.4.1655
Richard £3 bapt 26.9.1658
James £3 and cottage occupied by William Watkie
Dorothy £3 bapt 12.2.1663
Samuel £4
 The rest of the estate to son George who is not yet married and his heirs.

I think George the son is your George.
His christening is missing because of the English Civil war

Other siblings who must have died young Anne 25.1.1657 and  Maria 6.3.1665-23.5.1667 and Thomas buried 8.11.1665 ,Joanna 20.2.1677

Anna/Ann  widow buried 18.7.1693 of Isombridge
George buried 8th June 1682

I would guess George junior was born c 1650.
