Hi Cory

Theres only one George Alexander Sayle I can see baptised 5/11/1871 (so date fits with birth) parents Thomas and Mary Ann Sayle.
The James and Harriet you mentioned were still together in 1901 living at 33 Tynwald Street with a son Thomas.
The Thomas Sayle (married to Mary Ann) looks like he died 1883. Mary Ann possibly 1904. They had other children, Willian, Thomas and Isabella. In 1901 Isabella was living with her brother William and his family - I think William named a son George born c1897.
Just wondered where you got the information that George Alexander Sayles parents were James and Harriet from?
I can give you more specific Census information if you think that its Thomas and Mary Ann.
