It seems highly unlikely that this is the same George Herbert of Drybrook who's listed in the Servicemen Database, as he'd have been serving in WW1 aged 50+.

Likewise it's probably not their Grandson George born c1868 according to their 1871 & 1881 Census data. It's not helpful that I cannot find the family's 1861 Census record.
I cannot find his baptism, I think this is him, presumably the illegitimate son of one of their older daughters ? ;
