Have you looked on FreeBMD for any possible marriages

Possible in 1913 in the same registration district as the birth

BUT there are a lot of Webb & Holt marriages so the birth cert is needed to confirm the names of parents

You need her birth cert really. However, at a guess Elizabeth from 1911 above might be the mother, naming Sobay after her sister.

There is no way to be sure wthout Sobay's birth or marriage cert. For future ref. should above marriage be the right one.

Well, it does look promising, thank goodness for strange names! Advice is still to get the birth cert though.
