I love the Wikipedia entry for Olga Petrova the actress and film star, which says "Not to be confused with Olga Petrova, the footballer"!  Although her birth is given as 10 May 1884 I can't see it registered on FreeBMD.

I`ve an Olga born Jan 1918, sadly died April 1918.

Her sister Olga was born 1923, died 1924; both in Wales, of Lincolnshire and Yorkshire parents.
