Hello Shirley - have you got a copy of his marriage certificate? That should give his father's name to make sure the right family is traced.

There are no other children for this couple that I can see.
It was unusual back then not to have a few but these things happened even then. will looks to see if there is one mistranscribed.

Edit - No still cannot find one
