This is probably a red herring, but because you said his middle name was William, I've been looking at this family on the 1861 census - not the George who is too old, but the William who is about the right age:
Tranch Wood, Trevethin, Monmouthshire
John Baker Head M 53 Collier Monm Panteg
Mary Do Wife M 55 Do
George Do Son U 24 Miner Trevethen
John Do Do Do 22 Collier Do
Ann Do Dau 18 Do
Mary Do Do 14 Do
William Do Son 7 Do
Trevethin is just outside Pontypool.
But I haven't managed to find out anything else about them to rule them in or out yet.
