The birth should be on freebmd, which is so easy to use.

have you looked?

The MMN will be recorded, so you can look for the marriage of the parents

Use this free site for bmd's from late 1837 to approx 1960's - an ongoing project

http://www.freebmd.org.uk

Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Mar 1920 (>99%)
Wilde William Rimmer Prescot 8b 1787

This gives his name and the mother's maiden name, so you can then look for a marriage (doesn't quite work if she married having been previously married!)

Possible marriage- again from freebmd. It's the only one coming up from 1890 onwards in any area.
