Di, FS can you two find anything on this guy i found nowt

There's this one, George did marry in Oldbury..
1861
173
Popes Lane, Oldbury
Mary A Low 46 - Widow - b Birmingham
John Low 21 - Boat man
Thomas Low 16 - Labourer
George Low 14 - Boat man
kids b Tamworth

Think this might be him - Notice his occupation. It matches the later census. Is it possible that Mary remarried a 'Lowe' at some stage and George took his name ... or Mary was previously married to a 'Lowe.' Getting confused now
