Thank you Cynthia for your message,have taken your advice and have searched trees for William and sent messages to possible matches.
Unfortunately I keyed in the wrong date of birth on the message board which I have amended.

Flick,sorry I don't know what the L stands for as Williams second name,when I searched BMD records a few years ago his birth read July August September 1919 as you found. The children were
Bertha Hughes Feb 1912
Marion
Ethel
William
Ivy
I don't recall any mention of Robert so perhaps he died will search for that.
Thank you all for your help.

Flick,sorry for delay in replying to your message,that certainly looks like my William Hughes,thank you so much for that.I have in the past sent messages to people who have corrisponding data in their tree but have not had much luck,so now have contacted people with no place of birth or the London area's.Many thanks again.
