Peter Hedgecock is registered in July-Sept Quarter 1941 Mother Maiden name is Hedgecock, district Brighton Vol 2b page 530.

Am assuming either his Mother and Father had the surname Hedgecock, or your Father was named after his Mother surname, possible Father not named on certificate. You would need to buy to see

Births Sep 1912
Sawyers Joseph A W (mothers maiden name- Garman) birth registered in Horsham

Their is a marriage 1909 for Thomas Albert Sawyers and Margaret Alice Garman (Reigate)

You need the marriage certificate of Joseph and Violet.
Hopefully their fathers will be named and you should then be able to find them in the 1901 census.

When was the 1st child born to Joseph and Violet?.... That is often a guide to finding the marriage.
