The family in Dover in 1911 are a better match (except for the father's occupation) for the family in 1921.

I wonder if Benjamin (Minnie’s husband) is the son of Benjamin and Emily that you have Bearkat?

This might be totally wrong and needs lots of checking.

Going off dates, I think father Charles could be Benjamin C Brooker born 1885, Brighton.
He is the person found by Bearkat in 1921, York.

He married Minnie Guardes Du Bray in 1905 in Dover.
Benjamin William Brooker, son, b 1908, Pewsey, Wiltshire

The family can be found in 1911, in Dover

Part of the family in 1921 in York with another family, mother and sons? living with them - Myers.

1939 Benjamin C Brooker (1885) still in York with a different occupation to that in 1911.

However, this would mean that Benjamin George Patrick Brooker was born Benjamin William and then in those electoral rolls with Angelina was Benjamin C Brooker.
