1911 census shows William Mocock (William signed the schedule, and seems to have written this himself) aged 43 in Birmingham. He is a cycle fitter (William Morecock is a cycle hand filer in 1901),  with his son Samuel (aged 15).   
Lodging at the same address is Agnes Haywood (widow), and  two daughters: Kathleen aged 9 and Agnes aged 3 months.

William is married, and has filled in the details for years  married (21) and number of children (5: 3 still living).



An interesting find Galium - William Morecock born London

For info
family search & F M P has surname transcribed as Mccock
1911 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XWCB-BRZ

Also there is a William Mocock with the Haywood family in 1921.

Free BMD has this possibly death entry

Mocock    William    age 91   
Dec 1956  Birmingham    9c   123

Buried Birmingham, Handsworth Cemetery

Edit to add

1939 register Birmingham there is a  William Mocock born May 1865

Lady hawk, I went down that route last night, think he appears in 1939 with a dob of may 1865. Still not decided if he is the same William who married Selina. So many Mocock/morecocks who are gun makers/ gun finishers etc

...................................

The William Charles Morecock who died aged 74 in 1944 details below.

Born
MOCOCK, WILLIAM  CHARLES     mmn WILSON 
GRO Reference: 1870  J Quarter in BETHNAL GREEN  Volume 01C  Page 316

His parents Alfred Morecock 1842-1893 & Mary Ann Wilson. Alfred is the brother of William Morecock born 1838, Both have mmn Eaves.

census refs
1881- 2993 141 37
1891- 2392 122 23
Marries Minnie Maud Birch dg 1891
1901- 269 175 13
4 known children, Minnie Maud 1893. Doris May 1897, Leah 1898, William 1901

William goes to NZ in 1904.

Cannot find Minnie and children after 1901 census.

So in conclusion I believe the William found with the Haywoods in 1911/1921 is the father of George W Morecock.

Going by Henry's occupation in 1921, in 1911 may be recorded as H King 1880 Baker.
