Thank You.

Edward Robertson.

There is a David Peary born in 1900, Sunderland:-

Births Sep 1900 (>99%)
Peary David Sunderland 10a 731

........but he doesn't show on 1901 or 1911 census with Annie and her family so only way to find out if she was the mother would be to buy a copy of the cert. unless you can find him on the census records to see who he is with.
Will take a look.

EDIT:-
This may also be relevant to above birth record:-

Do you not have your Grandmother Ellen's birth certificate. This will give you her parents names which will confirm if Annie is indeed her mother. As you say, "she is believed to be my Great Grand Mother", you really do need to confirm this fact before moving on.

This looks to be the birth record for the Nelly in 1911 census:-
