that does look like a possibility -- it was not as unusual as we are sometimes led to believe!

Hello Sue

If your grandmother was unmarried when she had your mom - do you know your grandmother's full name and where she was born? If not, you will need your mom's birth certificate before you can go any further back.

Here is the birth for Thomas E Perry in 1913 on FreeBMD

Births Dec 1913 (>99%)

Perry Thomas Hayes S.Shields 10a 1803
Perry Thomas Campbell Liverpool 8b 10
Perry Thomas A Banks Kings N. 6d 215 (Banks is his mother's maiden name)
Perry Thomas C Thorne Chard 5c 590
Perry Thomas J Taylor Poplar 1c 831
Perry Thomas O Fellows Aston 6d 774

So, if this is your Thomas, and we know from the information on the marriage that his father is Arthur, we are now looking for a marriage between : Arthur Perry and Spouse's name Banks, before 1913 - probably in the Kings Norton area
