This looks like George's birth registration from the GRO but with his first names the other way round.
BREWER, MAFEKING GEORGE IRELAND
GRO Reference: 1900 J Quarter in CARDIFF Volume 11A Page 383
This might be his parents marriage
Marriages Mar 1883
BREWER Frederick Droitwich 6c 419
IRELAND Martha Droitwich 6c 419
I'll check the 1901 census.
Are you sure his mother was Anna Dobbs?

Just realised you meant Anna was George's wife.
He is on the 1901 census with parents Frederick and Martha and five older siblings.
Registration district Cardiff
Archive reference RG13
Piece number 4977
Folio 36
Page 6
The 1911 indicates that his father has died and his mother remarried:-
