Hi Vicky,  I am the great-granddaughter of Charles Pelling you are looking for.  Charles came to the U.S. around early to mid 1890s, where he settled in Chicago and worked at the Chicago Stockyards.  He married Maria Warden (my great-grandmother) and remarried again on 11/30/1900 to Emma (Hooper) Jones.  Maria died in abt. 1899 from breast cancer, had 3 small sons who were placed in an orphanage after her death because Charles did not feel he could take care of them.  Charles died 4/28/1925 at Cook Co. (Chicago) IL. 

I am not a newbie to genealogy but on Roots Chat, so you will have to excuse me if I do not follow proper protocol.  Let me know if I can help further.  So much fun to find a cousin!
