Bloomfields and Turners in Suffolk
« on: Saturday 03 June 23 14:22 BST (UK) »
Hi, I have been searching for information on the parents of Dorothy May. Unfortunately, I do not have much info other than that she was born in 1914 and died in 1976. She married Reginald Aleric Bloomfield and their daughter is Violet May Bloomfield born 1935.

I would be grateful for any info or points in the right direction. A recent Ancestry DNA test has helped piece together some wonderful family history but also left some questions.

TURNER, DOROTHY  MAY mmn  TURNER  
GRO Reference: 1914  D Quarter in HARTISMERE  Volume 04A  Page 1786 

In 1939 Dorothy May gives a birth date of 6 October 1914.
The above is the only one of 5 DMT registered in 1914 in the correct qtr.
As mmn is also Turner there's a chance she was illegitimate.
You would need the birth certificate to make sure.

1921 census on Findmypast has an exact match.
Born in Thorndon, Suffolk.
There are 2 more named females and 2 others on the record. 
You can buy the record without subscribing.
