Up to 1936 on Ancestry.
Do you know when he was born?
Do you know if he had siblings?

You say you are looking for last names of mothers and fathers? Surely these would be Lewis and Chorley?  Freebmd has 3 children registered in Prescot district in 1940, 1943 and 1944 with surname Lewis and mother's maiden name Chorley. As they are still possibly living I won't give further details. This would indicate that Hannah's maiden surname was Chorley, (as opposed to Chorley being the surname of a previous husband). If you knew the ages of Hannah and Alan, you could probably find their birth registrations, although Alan Lewis is quite a common name.

If Hannah was about 19 when married there's a likely birth reg in Prescot district for a Hannah Chorley in 1920, mother's maiden name Welsby. Several siblings. Marriage in 1916 for Thomas Chorley and Mary Welsby again Prescot district. All on FreeBMD
