No Uttersall births found with a Hill mother in India or England and Wales.
In 1930 she married Dermott L Allen in Kensington.

In 1939 she, with an identical birth date to her baptism record, was in Wendover with a children’s nurse and a redacted child:
Torvel Colmbe Av lane , Aylesbury R.D., Buckinghamshire, England
FIRST NAME(S) LAST NAME(S) DOB SEX OCCUPATION MARITAL STATUS SCHEDULE SCHEDULE SUB NUMBER
Beatrice H Allen 26 Nov 1893 Female Domestic Duties Unpaid Married 249 1
Beatrice (Ann Beatrice) Grandley 17 Apr 1899 Female Children Nurse Single 249 3
This child may have been adopted. But no entry found for an Allen birth in Bucks area. Though there was a birth in the Watford area in 1937.
________________
Her will leaves her estate to her daughter Noreen Claude Silberrad, wife of Richard Michael Silberrad.
So I was able to use this gem to find his marriage which was to Noreen C Allen in 1956.
This then led to finding the birth of Noreen C Allen in 1933 with a mother of maiden name Hill in Marylebone.
Sounds like a Bingo! (And Beatrice was a very credible 40 at the birth of her daughter.
