The 1893 marriage, again:
Lily Chivers in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Marriage Index, 1837-1915 Name: Lily Chivers Registration Year: 1893 Registration Quarter: Oct-Nov-Dec Registration district: Bath Inferred County: Somerset Volume: 5c Page: 1096 Records on Page: Name Lily Chivers Walter Frank Hemmens George Hill Emmeline Kate Pope
For one thing, if Lily in 1911 is the same person, she would only have been c15 at marriage. Not impossible, I suppose.
But anyway, it was Walter Hemmens who married Lily Chivers:
Walter Frank Hemmens in the 1911 England Census Name: Walter Frank Hemmens Age in 1911: 42 Estimated birth year: abt 1869 Relation to Head: Head Gender: Male Birth Place: Bristol, Gloucestershire Civil Parish: Kingswood County/Island: Somerset Country: England Street address: 20 Kimberley Rd, St, Kingswood, Bristol Marital status: Married Occupation: Boot Trade Clicker Registration district: Keynsham Registration District Number: 317 Sub-registration district: Kingswood ED, institution, or vessel: 11 Household schedule number: 263 Piece: 14761 Household Members: Name Age Walter Frank Hemmens 42 Lily Hemmens 38 - born Tunly, Somerset, c1873. Gladys Lilian Hemmens 12 Horace Walter Hemmens 6
George Hill married Emmeline Pope:
Emmeline Kate Hill in the 1911 England Census Name: Emmeline Kate Hill Age in 1911: 36 Estimated birth year: abt 1875 Relation to Head: Head Gender: Female Birth Place: Frome, Somerset Civil Parish: Bath County/Island: Somerset Country: England Street address: 14 Norfolk Crescent, Bath Marital status: Widowed Occupation: Bork Keeper Registration district: Bath Registration District Number: 316 Sub-registration district: Walcot ED, institution, or vessel: 22 Household schedule number: 360 Piece: 14724 Household Members: Name Age Emmeline Kate Hill 36 Richard Geoffrey Hill 14 Jessie Jones 29

Are you quite sure you've got the right 1911 for your George?
George in 1911 was born in Fenton, not Hanley (yes, I know they're both parts of Stoke on Trent). Lily in 1911 was born in Falmouth, not Bath. William in 1911 was born in Fenton, not Bristol.
It seems like a lot of wrong info on the census if that's your George.

Martin, William is not 3 on the 1911 census, as posted above he is 14.
I can't see the marriage you refer to? oh yes I can but it is Chivers not Chiver

Child?
HILL, WILLIAM CHIVERS GRO Reference: 1897 D Quarter in BRISTOL Volume 06A Page 23
You could buy the marriage cert to see if George's father matches?

Confirmation that George Hill - parents are definitely William Hill and Thirza Newman.
1891 census shows George Hill at 59 Mellville Street, Hanley, Staffordshire.
I did find a Marriage possible -
Lily Chiver, Somerset - date of marriage 1893 5 a 1096, pg 54
1911 census definately states William is son of George and is 3yrs of age.

FOR ELIMINATION ONLY:
this is NOT the same family:
George Hill in the 1939 England and Wales Register Name: George Hill Gender: Male Marital status: Married Birth Date: 16 Jul 1876 Residence Year: 1939 Address: Bonnington Residence Place: Walsall, Staffordshire, England Occupation: Dairy Clerk Schedule Number: 39 Sub Schedule Number: 1 Enumeration District: OOOY Registration district: 370/2 Inferred Spouse: Lillie Hill Inferred Children: Lillie R Hill Household Members: Name George Hill Lillie Hill Howard J Hill Lillie R Hill Julia R Hill
That Lillie's ms was Tooth. She and that George married in 1903 and are together in 1911 census.

Birth of son William ????
HILL, WILLIAM HENRY mms HAMMONDS GRO Reference: 1896 S Quarter in STOKE UPON TRENT Volume 06B Page 259
Parents' marriage:
Marriages Dec 1895 (>99%) Hammonds Mary Ann Stoke T. 6b 341 Hill George Thomas Stoke T. 6b 341
Per 1911 census, George and Lily had been married for 15 years, which would fit the above marriage.
Could Lily just be what Mary Ann liked to be called?
But there are loads of Mary Ann Hammonds born in Staffordshire - and none in Falmouth. Or maybe Falmouth is a mistake on the census ???
George is George T in 1891 with his parents and siblings;
George T Hill in the 1891 England Census Name: George T Hill Gender: Male Age: 16 Relationship: Son Birth Year: 1875 Father: Alfred Hill Mother: Matilda Hill Birth Place: Stoke Upon Trent; Fenton Civil Parish: Stoke upon Trent Residence Place: Fenton, Stoke upon Trent, Staffordshire, England Sub registration district: Fenton ED, Institution or Vessel: 13 Neighbors: Piece: 2179 Folio: 124 Household Members: Name Age Alfred Hill 40 Matilda Hill 39 Mary A Hill 18 George T Hill 16 Elizabeth Hill 13 Rupert Hill 12 William H Hill 10 Lydia A Hill 8 Eliza Hill 7 Nellis Hill 5 Ruth Hill 4 Matilda Hill 7/12
I can't see George and either Lily or Mary Ann in 1901.

Can we assume you’ve looked at freebmd for a marriage between George Hill and a Lily?
Alternative is to look for the son’s birth on the GRO site, where MMN is given
|
I am trying to find maiden name of Lily, born c1878 - married to George Hill born 1875 Staffordshire.
1911 census shows them both living 106 Raglan Street, Fenton, Staffordshire with child George Hill.
Lily showing as born Falmouth, Cornwall. Marriage according to census should be around 1896 but I am at a loss trying to research her maiden name to get the marriage details. Any help welcome
