If your mother was adopted she could have had any name at birth.

There was no legal adoption until 1926.

A bit strange to 'adopt' from Dudley to Willesden.

Have you considered she was a niece or other relation of Harry and Elizabeth?

I cannot see any births for children of Harry and Elizabeth, but they only waited 2 years after marriage if they did adopt Betty.

Added:
Have you death dates for Harry and Elizabeth - cannot see definite births for them.

Trying to establish parentage of my mother Betty Hibbs (also known as Elizabeth Hibbs) My mothers married name is Parker (in 1946 at Southend on sea)
Betty Hibbs was born Apr 1923. I can only find one entry in birth records, a birth under the mothers surname of Hind, in Dudley. I cannot find another Betty?
So my Betty may have been adopted(?) as she was brought up as the daughter of Harry Hibbs and Elizabeth Hibbs (Cassam), who lived in Neasdon/Willesden area of London in 1923 and from194? - 195? at Southend on sea, and from 1953 to 1970 in Hayes(middlesex).
Is there anyone who can help me establish if the Dudley birth is my mother or not?
If it is my mother are there any details of her birth mother's family you would be willing to share?
Thanks in advance for any input you can give to me.

Researching:
Hibbs, Cassam, Parker, Ingram, Moore, Wyatt
