I suspect that George Henry might be the child of one of the girls - probably Elizabeth? Elizabeth might be 'Phyllis' in this 1881?:

1881 at 51 Halesowen Street, Rowley Regis
James Rollinson Head 30 Coal Miner b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Sarah Rollinson Wife 34 b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Phillis Rollinson Daur 9 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
William Rollinson Son 8 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Alice Rollinson Daur 5 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Ann Rollinson Daur 4 Scholar b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Thomas Rollinson Son 1 b. Staffs., Rowley Regis
Some mistakes are too much fun

Put Unknown Unknown for one of the children then add in George
put a note on saying you are not sure which child he belongs to but he belongs
you believe to this family
