There is a marriage in 1952.

Even if he did name a Father on the marriage cert.......to "save face" he might have just made up a name if he didn't know who his father was.

If there is no father named on the birth certificate, you may never find his father. Did he marry? He may have named his father on his marriage certificate if he knew who he was.

Unless she took out an order for maintenance, you have virtually no chance of identifying the father

If Derek is alive, you should remove his actual date of birth.
