Several years ago I was researching the Pettinger family and found :-

Marriages Sep 1915
Pettinger Cyril R Adams N.Bierley
9b 165

Adams Grace B Pettinger N.Bierley
9b 165


Births Jun 1892
Pettinger Cyril Russell E. Retford
7b 10

If my assumed connection is correct I would like to see Cyril's family, in 1901 to find his parents and siblings as FreeBMD is giving me a somewhat confused combination.

Many thanks,
Frances

Looks good Andrew - I noticed that he was a Joiner before he became a Wesleyan Minister so perhaps this fits with his father being a Sawyer?

On the 1851 census.........it states James Pettinger age 75 (Retired) is William's Brother.

A bit old to be his Brother wouldn't you think?
