1901 in hospital?

Perhaps his birth name wasn’t Carver

Did he name a father when he married?

No Joseph Carver birth that would match with that birth date

If you haven’t got it then the marriage cert may help identify him

The marriage cert is the only way forward.

This is the ONLY illegitimate birth for a JOSEPH in the right district and quarter. (Assuming that his DoB in 1939 is accurate, and that his birthplace is given correctly in 1911)
