Hazel reminded us:- > John Harold and John Leslie abandoned the surname PUDDEPHATT and assumed > the surname WORTH I'm not surprised. The Puddephatt clan (various spellings) were, according to my late father, best avoided (although I have to say that one of my distant cousins - of this list - is descended from one and she seems a very nice person.) There were Puddephatts all over the Bucks/Herts border country in the 19th century, and still about forty in the HP postcode district - according to the phone book. Mike
