A tree on Ancestry has him born Hampshire but links him to the George who is in the RM in 1851 Alvechurch but born Guildford, Surrey. 

I wonder where he was born.  ??? 

Have you linked the marriage witnesses to George or were they Elizabeths relations/friends.  What was his father John's occupation.

Elizabeth Wood is supposedly a widow on the 1861 census.  That child born 1862 could have been anyones  :-\

Do you have George Wood in 1851.

Yes, that has been my hangover for 15 years. 
Who was the daddy. 
I have a stab at it every few years. 
I am thinking  his death in the China drug wars

Thanks for fresh pair of eyes on this.
