Your grandma Alice's birth cert will name both parents
You would need to find the death cert of Hannah as a starting point to look for the next marriage ,Its always more difficult to come forward without further info

This birth would seem to confirm Hannah's maiden name

Rutherford Alice Haddon Chester le S. 10a 625
This is prior to the records having the mmn so Alice was given her mums maiden name as part of her name

Sorry I'm a bit slow this evening, it's the laptop not me!

Have searched 1940-1944 no death found for Mary ( who would be in her 30's )

I'll now try 1945-1950
