I would imagine his name is down as Cole because that's how the enumerator heard it when told his name was Cowell?

According to a tree on ancestry

Marriage to Arthur William Pearce190017 Nov Age: 26Calcutta, West Bengal, India Union Chapel, Calcutta. Marriage certificate shows Arthur William's profession as 'ironmonger'

Douglas, If George Thomas Cole was the adopted son of William Hellyar then would he not also adopt the surname Hellyar?

Births Jun 1897
Cowell George Thomas S. Shields 10a 756


Births Dec 1874
COWELL Florence Mary Truro 5c 156

No trace of a marriage or death for Florence even using Phonetic search for her surname, Did She emigrate?

Roy

Looking more closely at the 1901 image, George is aged 4 not 14.

Is his father's name on the birth cert? If so, what is it?

I did notice that the George Thomas is aged 14 in both 1901 and 1911 census, so there could be two Georges.

If George Thomas Cole is George Thomas Hellyar in the 1911 census, then how come his mother was registered on his birth certificate as Florence Mary Cowell which I am in receipt of.

Thanks for that roy

Douglas is a new poster so message to let him no he has replies

Roy

In the event that no children was born to the marriage then if no one can find a birth for Mary Jane the marriage cert is the other option to see if smaller is her maiden name or if it is a second marriage

Just looked at the 1911 census again, Porkie and it states that George Thomas was also adopted! I will add this to the 1911 census above.

Cannot find a birth for Mary Jane in Scarbro' 1873 +/- 1 year under the name Smaller so wonder if William could be a second marriage,

The birth cert for George Thomas Hellyar may be required to clarify her maiden name
