William E Norris who married Helen Stones was born 22 May 1885 - poss death Lewisham Dec qtr 1958.

Helen (b 23 Dec 1905) appears to have had a subsequent marriage to (or relationship with) a Mr Valenti and died as Helen Carrie Valenti in Worthing in 1989.

Helen seems to have been with Mr Valenti by Sep qtr 1945 when a child was born in Lewisham - birth indexed under both the Norris and Valenti surnames.

So either Paul has the wrong birth year for William or has him married to the wrong lady.

Did William have any children?  There appears to be just one child from the Norris/Barrett marriage.

Yes there are children to the Norris/Stones marriage (who seem to have changed surname to Valenti at some point) and children predating that marriage registered as Norris mmn Ketley.
