There is no record of a birth for Evelyn Morris with MMN Morgan

Stanley was registered 1944 in Ilford district

Brian 1938 in Romford.

So the family moved around...................

Is this your parents' marriage?
Leslie D Morris
Spouse Surname: Wing
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1969
Registration District: Waltham Forest
Inferred County: Greater London
Volume Number: 5e
Page Number: 727
Jill Wing Morris Oct-Nov-Dec 1969 Waltham Forest Greater London

and his death?
Leslie David Morris
Birth Date: 21 Dec 1927
Date of Registration: Jun 1983
Age at Death: 55
Registration District: Eastbourne
Inferred County: East Sussex
Volume: 18
Page: 0485

and his birth:
Births Mar 1928
Morris Leslie D Morgan Southwark 1d 24

If so, you can find his siblings from Morris/Morgan in free bmd:
http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl
but there are a lot of hits as it is a common surname combination, so restrict your search to the London region.

Have you got his actual birth certificate for his parents' names?
