England. 1800's Unmarried parents. Is it possible to trace the father without a marriage cert to give clues?

My grandfather was born to an unwed mother who lived with his father (her boyfriend) and had two other siblings. They never married and eventually broke up.

I discovered the name of the father from writing to Dr. Barnado's Homes and the social worker's report had the name of the father.

Would anyone have any suggestions as to where to go with that?

Thanks.
