Both the 1910 marriage and 1915 marriage images record him as just Albert and both name father as Joseph Withers occupation Lamp lighter.

It's the right person & parents but as stated in earlier replies - apart from the baptismal entry there is no other official document which shows a middle name of Herbert
 
Birth/census/both marriages/ 1939 register/death all show just Albert
