Can't see Arthur after 1911 with any certainty, but there are several records for males named Arthur Johns (and Arthur Lee, in case John Lee adopted him)) of around the right age, in various places .
Can't tell if any of them might be him.

There's no way of knowing where he might have moved to.

Ah yes, that sounds right for William Johns, and Sarah did marry William Blanchard.
I don't know much more about him either.

This is very interesting info everyone, thanks.
No wonder I couldn't find her birth, as it's Jones rather than Johns, but that fits as her mother was Sarah Ann Holliday.

No sign of George's brother Arthur anywhere? As they left the workhouse at the same time together.

Not sure how old John was, but I believe he was a joiner.

I think Elizabeth was born in April 1800, but cannot be sure and I have no idea if her and John had children.
