In response to Jansy's question:  Well, of course there's Humbert's own
attempt to find "Mrs. Richard F. Schiller" after he receives a letter
from her that witholds her home address.  Indeed, if my memory of the
film--which I liked very much, by the way--is accurate, Don's quest ends
when he tracks down one of his former paramours to the same kind of
place where Humbert finds Dolores in Coalmont, complete with dog: "an
even more dismal district, all dump and ditch, and wormy vegetable
garden, and shack, and gray drizzle, and red mud" (p. 269).
