This looks like their son Mike’s birth:
Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Dec 1935 (>99%)
Morgan Michael G Bond Kidderminster 6c 168
But MMG’s birth does not appear on FreeBMD with a surname of Morgan and a mother’s name of Bond. However her birth registration in Oct-Dec 1940 does appear on TheGenealogist as:
Name Mother District Vol Page
Morgan Mary M.G. Bond Kidderminster 6c 270
I think all entries (for Kidderminster?) for Q2-4 of 1940 are (were?) missing from FreeBMD.
No other Morgan-Bond births in the Kidderminster area are to be found.
