Yes, it looks as though Sidney named a daughter after his mother.

I'm not sure what either of the certs could tell you, actually - death certs are very uninformative.

The birth cert will show his exact birth date and probably confirm his mother as Ellen.

In my opinion, you won't get anything more conclusive than the Army papers I mentioned, showing mother Ellen as well as the Oak street address and the daughter Frances Edith.
