Sources differ as to what led Sherry to the Raccoon Police Station, with one account suggesting she was pulled out of her lessons at East Raccoon Elementary School - possibly on Thursday - and another suggesting she fled there at some point during the week when her parents failed to return from work. As the t-Virus showed itself on Thursday 24 September, it reached a critical mass that eventually turned tens of thousands of residents into mutants, overwhelming the efforts and resources of the Raccoon Police Department and Raccoon Fire Department to stop the outbreak. The virus eventually spread to Raccoon City's drinking water. With the single remaining sample, William infected himself, transformed into the monster simply known as 'G' and killed the attackers, but released the t-Virus into the sewers in the process. On the night of Tuesday 22 September, the Umbrella Security Service infiltrated the laboratory, shot Sherry's father, and stole his samples of Golgotha. For more detail on differing portrayals, see this page. This section is based on a game with branching story paths, or several games with conflicting accounts. As a potential security risk, Sherry's safety was important to her parents, who wanted her to stay away from strangers who could be after Golgotha.

Her mother also entrusted her with a locket, disguised as her 11th birthday present, that was related to her and William's research. Little else is known of this stage of Sherry's life, although she was enrolled as a student at East Raccoon Elementary. Her parents were senior researchers of the G-Virus Project, a eugenics project that oversaw the creation of Golgotha, a Progenitor strain they believed could be used to improve the human race.

Sherry's relationship with her parents was strained due to their busyВ work schedules and, despite their early 1990s transfer to the NEST in the industrial district, she was frequently neglected. Sherry was born around the year 1986 to Doctors William and Annette Birkin, two virologists who took part in t-Virus research at Umbrella's isolated Arklay Laboratory.
