Hi Barbara,
If your George was left an orphan in Birmingham, England, it is most likey that he went to the Middlemore Children's Home. Many of the Middlemore Children were shipped to Canada. (British Home Children)
Records of some of these children may be found on the Canadian Archives site:

I see that there is a George Southall, aged 12. Emigrated in 1884 from Middlemore.
It might be worth checking it out as you can get the records from the Canadian Archives in Ottawa.
Hope this helps,
Pam B.
