I think AJH93 needs to advise obtaining a copy of either the 1943 or 1958 marriage certs to establish the name & surname of Agnes's father.  If she was born 1926 she was barely 17 in 1943 so unlikely to have been previously married.

There is no fitting birth for an Agnes Gordon Redmond in England/Wales/Scotland

If Joseph Britton was the alleged father of a child born c 1944 & allegedly married to the mother - the  birth cert should give parental details,
Or do you mean he was married to someone else? 

His 1955 marriage cert should show his marital status - as mentioned above - he was 40 so may have been previously married

This is what I was able to OCR on my iPad (no edits):

Quote
BRITTON
(Camperdown). 4 Camper-down Avenue. Peacefully in hospital on 3rd April 1992. aged 77 years, Joseph (Joe). beloved husband of Eliza-beth, much loved brother of all the family. Cremation at Whitley Bay Crematorium on Thursday 9th 9th April at 2.30pm. Friends please meet at the crematorium. Family flowers only please but donations in lieu may be sent to Cancer Research. Freeman Hospital, Newcastle.

And on the BNA this is (I think) the OCR text:
Quote
Camper. down Arena. Peweeslis in IIo•NW on Jed April 1092. need 77 yews. Joseph iJosi henbane of [11..• bete, ouchlowed broth - o;7d all the family et Whitley .y Crematorium on Thursday 9th Awn at 2 Friemds plow at dye erentetoriwe Tawny !lowers only geese bin donations in lieu may be cant to Caner Research. Frew man Moyne]. Newcastle.

I have a theory that BNA sometimes used a version of OCR that was the brainchild of Professor Stanley Unwin :-)

A number of things don't add up here.  If the 1943 marriage is correct - it was in Somerset in the Sept qtr 1943 & there appears to have been a child born in Lancashire in 1946 & another also in Lancashire in 1951

An illegitimate child born Newcastle around 1944 doesn't fit
