<u>Note</u> : I have seen the entry at http://www.ancestry.co.uk and Joseph's birthplace is clearly Gilden Morden, and John is John T, age 1.


There is an entry in the BMD Index at http://freebmd.rootsweb.com for John Thomas Pettengell, born in the June quarter 1880 in Pancras district -- Vol. 1b, page 157.

Pancras district includes Kentish Town.

There is an entry in the BMD Index at http://freebmd.rootsweb.com for John Thomas <b>Pettingell</b>, age 1, died in the December quarter 1881 in Edmonton district -- Vol. 3A, page 137.

Note : John/ Joseph's birthplace is shown as Nordon, and Elizabeth's as Ashall, Arford ; John, age 10 months, was probably Joseph, who should have been only 1 month old, not 10 months.

The entry is for Pettingell.

Elizabeth's birthplace is shown as Ashwell, Northampton (!), and Joseph seems to be the son, John, in the 1891 census.
