I think you need to be more specific about what information you are looking for.

I’m looking for what George Ralph did for a living, his family, and war records or military history. Or anything else you can possibly find about him

[maddys52]

As you can see from the 1861 census, George RALPH was  a copper miner.

This looks like it could be family at Buscaverran, Crowan in 1841 (mother Mary - farmer)

Possibly the family in 1851 at Crowan, George is a copper miner:

There is an item on Ancestry in the "UK, Coal Mining Accidents and Deaths Index, 1878-1935" for George RALPH died 20 July 1867 at Ince, Wigan. He was a labourer for the Ince Hall Coal and Cannel Co. He died from a fall of roof at Arley mine.

For interest, Buscaverran on this 1877 map:

In 1851, they are at Releath which is just south east of Buscaverran. Looks like "Releath lower" on the census. 

(In 1861 George and Elizabeth and family are at Plain an Gwarry, Redruth.)

Newspaper reports of the inquest into his death seem to refer to him as John RALPH. "killed by a fall of roof in a pit belonging to the Ince Hall Coal and Cannel Company".
eg:
Saturday,  July 27, 1867
Publication: Liverpool Daily Post

Sunday,  July 28, 1867
Publication: The Era

I can only see a preview, however there seems to be a more detailed report in the Wigan Observer 27 July 1867.

From what I can see:

 ... on the body of John Ralph, oilman in the employ of Ince Hall Coal and Cannel Company, who was injured in the  yard mine on the 6th inst. The deceased was engaged with another man in erecting cabin, when a fill roof took place, and he was caught. His companion escaped. Ralph died on Friday morning the 19th instant. A verdict Accidental Death was returned."
