Useful sites for finding the mother’s name:
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp
It is free but you have to sign in.

http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk/
Some districts, including Wigan, show mother’s name.

The mother’s name looks to be Williams.

Possible Marriage of parents

Marriages Jun 1897 
Garner    George        Prescot    8b   1125    
Jackson    Sarah        Prescot    8b   1125   
Sherlock    John        Prescot    8b   1125    
Williams    Mary        Prescot    8b   1125    

Parents can be found in 1911 married 14 years, other children have mother's maiden name William's.
But no Ellen with them.

I have not been able to find the family in 1911 but working on the birth of Mary Agnes Sherlock. Mar Q 1901. Wigan. Mmn Williams., in 1901 they appear to be living  in Hindley, Lancs. (Family Search).
I think the record of the marriage of John Sherlock and Mary Williams in  1897 at Sutton, Lancs may be of relevance. Full details may be found on Free Reg.
(I see Johnhood has arrived at the same destination by a different route)

I wonder if she is the 1 yr old Nelly Sherlock here - age entered wrongly. The other children’s names can be matched with births on Lancs bmd.

Heywood
               Thank you for your help but sorry the ages does not work out.
Ellen Sherlock born Wigan 1903  looks like married a "George Cyril Caine" in 1924 at Bury

Nelly Sherlock would have been a bit young. I have not been able to find a "Ellen Sherlock" born 1903 at Wigan on the 1911 Census.

George Cyril Caine died in 1926 at Radcliff and left wife Ellen two pound.

They all look like they are living in the same area of Radcliff
