Hello, looking for the parents of Sidney Pearce 1904. Believe his mother is Sylvia Pearce and grandfather Charles Pearce.  Any help appreciated. Thank you

Hello
Yes I believe these are correct. It’s confusing me as to who Sidneys father is. His mother is Sylvia and her parents are Pearce & Dennett. I wonder if Sylvia did not marry the father of Sidney? Or was Sylvia not his mother but his sister?

Charles Pearce was married to Eleanor Dennett in 1880

It is possible that whoever registered Sidneys birth just lied about her maiden name.  In the absence of a baptism you really need the birth certificate.

ADDED
Was Sylvia born before her parents marriage - she would have been a Dennett then
