Thanks everyone, I have the 1939 England and Wales register which is where I got the dog from and that tallies up with his children, I also have 1901 and 1911 census that shows mother and feather as John and sarah jane Cook

John COOK and Sarah Jane HOWARTH married in 1881 at Salford.  You can see the birth registrations of their children here:

https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/indexes_search.asp

COOK, ALBERT
Mother's maiden surname:  HOWARTH     
GRO Reference: 1897  March Quarter in SALFORD  Volume 08D  Page 91

A birth in the March quarter 1897 does not match your Albert however plenty of people did not know exactly when they were born.

This birth and baptism matches your Albert:

There is a baptism for your  Albert Cook (Cooke) on Lancashire Parish clerks project. Baptised on 15th Dec. 1897 father James Cooke mother Eliza. Abode 20 Trafford Street. Fathers occupation, Street musician

The date of birth on that baptism is 3 Dec 1897.

COOK, ALBERT
Mother's maiden surname: JARVIS     
GRO Reference: 1898  March Quarter in SALFORD  Volume 08D  Page 146

December births were often registered in the first quarter of the following year.

Did your Albert marry?  If so, what name and occupation did he give for his father?

There is a tree with those parents but after this research, it would seem to be wrong.

I think he must be the one with mmn JARVIS (Eliza). Have a look on the 1911  for the same address as the 1939.

Annie, Samuel, and Albert all have the same mother (JARVIS) on their birth registrations, (first name Eliza on the baptisms).  I think that the older children had a different mother.

James is noted as being blind in 1891 and the baptism of Annie has him as an organ grinder, Samuel's as a blind street musician, and Albert's as a street musician.
