Thanks ,Yes I understand that,but they did marry,but he was already married,but thought his wife had died as she was a nurse in ww1 and both doing there own work ,in those days were seperated and he believed she was dead,so married Blanche ,he died soon after and she reverted to her maiden name,the daughter is Hayes,and it is possible they married after she was born,but they did marry , this is difficult to say the least ,but I am hopeful someone might know something

Possible birth of Phyllis but her surname is same as maiden name of mother making it look as if she's illegitimate:

If this is Phyllis's birth, then either Hayes was her mother's maiden AND married name, or more likely, her parents weren't married.

Birth: Hayes Phyllis M Hayes Croydon 2a 403 OND 1918.

There is no other birth reg of a Phyllis M in Croydon under another surname but with mother maiden name Hayes in the same qtr, which would give her father's surname if he was mentioned on the birth cert.
