FreeBMD has this birth:

December qtr 1924
Stockport Registration District     vol 8a, page 1

Ridgway, Eric     Mother's maiden name: Ridgway


If he was illegitimate, there will be no father's name on the Birth Certificate.

Did he mention a father when he married himself?

Stockport covered the Marple area back then. So I think this one is more likely.

Births Dec 1924

Have you found him in 1939 yet?

Thanks! I realised my mistake; and edited my previous post! :-[
By that time, you were too fast for me and posted a correction! ;D
