Worksop, Dorothy Pettinger
« on: Tuesday 02 November 04 14:16 GMT (UK) »
Dorothy Pettinger married Myles William Clarke around 1920 she had 1 son and 2 daughters with him. She died around 1934 aged about 33 years old. Nothing is known at present about either family parents. Myles.W. Clarke played football for Sheffied United that is known he also remarried and had 1 daughter and 2 sons. ( I am one of the sons) Any information about Dorothy mainly would be of great help, anything on M.W. would be a bonus. Thanks

HI,
Wondered if you have their wedding certificate?
Found details on Free bmd:
Marriages Mar 1922
Clarke Myles W    Pettinger    District E Retford   Volume 7b   Page 8
From this you should get details of their addresses, age and parents' names.
At least it's start!
Sheffield Family History Society have a wonderful site and resources available which might help - someone from Sheffield might know about Myles. Do you know where he, or Dorothy, are buried? They might be able to locate their resting place if you don't already know.
Also, there may be newspaper archives in Sheffield which might tell you about Myles' career.
Sorry I can't help any further - there are baptisms for Pettingers at Worksop, West Stockwith and East Retford, but nothing for Dorothy (searched 1890 -1910) + I can't find her on the 1901 Census(only Dorothy was born in Northamptonshire in 1894).
Good luck with the search!
Kind regards,
Paulene.

Dorothy CLARKE d. Sep qtr 1935 aged 32.  (E Retford, vol.7b, pg.6)

The only corresponding birth registration I can see is this one, but it's in a completely different area:

Births Sep 1902   (>99%)
PETTINGER    Dorothy        
Pontefract 9c 110
