Poor Dorothy, North Riding of Yorkshire, England 1908.

She/her

Little is known about Dorothy Mythlmroyd, except to say that she helped her niece Willow Mytholmroyd to raise a child in the absence of her late husband.

Across the ginnel, sympathetic neighbours were guarded about revealing much, but stated the two women kept themselves to themselves, noting they had only ever seen ‘poor’ Dorothy to show mother and child true love and affection.
