This would be your grandparents' marriage - a copy of the marriage cert should give you details of Samuel's father and it would be possible to work back from there:

Marriages Mar 1936
Chisnall Samuel R Oliphant Hackney 1b 530
Oliphant Lilian D Chisnall Hackney 1b 530

I can see no marriage in England or Wales for the parents of Samuel.

Frederick J might have died in 1913

Above is the correct family- here they are on the 1934 Electoral register:

1934
281 High Street, Poplar, East Ward

Frederick Joshua Chisnall
Mary Ann Chisnall
Samuel Richard Chisnall

Frederick and Mary Ann still at 281 High Street in 1938- a Gladys Hilda Chisnall also residing with them.

By 1947 it looks like they had moved to 844 Old Kent Road, Camberwell:
Frederick G Chisnall
Frederick J Chisnall
George W Chisnall
Mary A Chisnall

Ok, think this is it!!

Mary Ann English marries Charles Cusa in 1903:

Cusa Charles Brighton 2b 522
ENGLISH Mary Ann Brighton 2b
WAKLEY Henry Pinkney Brighton 2b 522
Bullock Alice Brighton 2b 522
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

then Mary marries again- this is the confusing marriage FMP:

Last name CUSA

Notice volume and page numbers for marriage that was put up earlier:

So now have to work out how the step children on the 1911 census have the name THEW??!
