  • Notes 
    • Ruddock in birth and baptism records, 1881 and 1891 censuses. Rudduck in 1911 and on MC..
      Not found in the 1901 census, but there is an unmarried Thomas Ruddock, b Upholland, alone aboard "Five Sisters" on the canal in Liverpool, with age given as 52, although it looks like the 5 has overwritten another figure, could this have been a 3?
      This family branch settled on the Rudduck spelling in the 1890s.
      Birthplace Standish in 1891 census, Wigan in 1911.
      Birth date "not known" in Waterways Archive records of Canal Transport Ltd.
