I don't think you'll ever know William Theodore Bastard/Besterd/Basford's father's name.
He may have been named after Susan's brother Theodore, who seems to disappear from records after 1861 - maybe died?:
Susannah Brunona Basterd in the 1861 England Census Name: Susannah Brunona Basterd [Susannah Brunona Bastard] Age: 3 Estimated Birth Year: 1858 Relation: Daughter Father's Name: William Basterd Mother's Name: Susannah Basterd Gender: Female Where born: Hessenford, Cornwall, England Civil Parish: St German Ecclesiastical parish: Hessenford County/Island: Cornwall Country: England Street Address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: View image Registration District: St Germans Sub-registration District: St Germans ED, institution, or vessel: 4c Neighbors: Household Schedule Number: 14 Piece: 1524 Folio: 55 Page Number: 4 Household Members: Name Age William Basterd 39 Susannah Basterd 39 Martha Ann Basterd 10 Theodore Basterd 8 <<<<<<<<<<<<<< William Henry Basterd 6 Susannah Brunona Basterd 3 Joseph James Basterd 3/12

Her other brother Wiliam Henry survived to adulthood:

He's in all the later censuses , with various spellings of the surname - or at least different transcriptions on Ancestry - Bustard/Bestard/Bastard /Bartard. He married and had several children - and died in 1935:

Oh Thankyou for searching this.. that would make sense....
I think I will track down the possible fathers of his brothers though see if can find a connection to their mother... been such a mystery for soo long... I can’t not look into this further...
Can the rest of you See the newspaper articles on this site or is it just me that can’t?

Depends what newspaper article you're looking for, Laura.
Hardly any of the helpers here use GR for research, though the ERs are useful.
Tell us what you're looking for, and I'm sure someone will be able to help.

Re the illegitimate child Fred , aged 1 on the 1891 census, with Susan (posted on page 1) .
Posting his birth again for ease of reference:
BASTARD, FREDERICK EDWARD GEORGE PAWLEY - GRO Reference: 1889 J Quarter in ST GERMANS Volume 05C Page 43
He's Pawley in 1901, because his mother Susan married George Pawley - so presumably, in view of of his middle name, his father was George Pawley:
Susan Pawley in the 1901 England Census Name: Susan Pawley Age: 46 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1855 Relation to Head: Wife Gender: Female Spouse: George Pawley Birth Place: St Germans, Cornwall, England Civil Parish: Landrake and St Erney Ecclesiastical parish: Landrake St Erney Town: Landrake County/Island: Cornwall Country: England Street Address: Registration District: St Germans Sub-registration District: Saltash ED, institution, or vessel: 2 Neighbors: Piece: 2189 Folio: 18 Page Number: 9 Household Schedule Number: 69 Household Members: Name Age George Pawley Susan Pawley 46 Frederick G Pawley 11 <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Stanley H E Pawley 8 Elizabeth E Pawley 6
Marriages Dec 1892 (>99%) Bastard Susan St Germans 5c 77 Pawley George St.Germans 5c 77
He remains Pawley (and with the middle names) in his Royal Navy record 1909-1910; and in 1911 census (waggoner, and farm work).
He joined the Lancashire Hussars Yeomanry in 1914. 1917, transferred to 18th Battalion, King's Liverpool Regiment. 21/03/1918 - POW in Germany. Released 19/12/1918/
Sallow complexion, grey eyes, brown hair. Height: 5' 7"
There's a possible marriage in Surrey in February 1918 (a solder, with no middle names, but father's name George ), and death in Surrey in 1945 - but again no middle names. Aged 25 at marriage, and 54 at death.
His army record doesn't detail any leave in Feb 1918, so not sure if this can be him or not.
However, the only other Frederick Pawleys I can see were two born in 1892 - one in Leicestershire, with no middle names, but his father was also Frederick, and he died in 1907. The other (with middle names Henry G R) was born in Rochford, Essex, with father Frederick, and he died in 1925.
