Will my grandchild - whom my daughter is going to give birth to shortly- be a "bastard" if she and the father,who are both Jewish,and live together,do not marry?

No!Contrary to popular belief,according to Jewish law your grandchild will have normal personal status, and will not be a "Mamzer" or bastard/illegitimate, if his/her parents do not marry,but cohabit, because there is an assumption of "Kiddushim" (or "dedication").
