Hi Nina, Do you have any dates? I found a Pinkney A. Rudd, b. march 1, 1853 who was married to Mary ? His father was Simon Bolivar Rudd b. March 7, 1830, d. August 2, 1879. Simon married Mary Helen Hightower b. abt. 1832 d. aft. 1880. Father of Simon Bolivar Rudd was Bryant Rudd b. abt 1785 d. 1847. He was the son of John Rudd b. abt. 1755 d. aft 1832 in Kentucky. If these dates are correct, let me know and I can give you more information.

If anyone can help, it's this group! Welcome to the list, Celia Hi Celia, I am new to this and was reading the old messages and thought you might be of some help to me. First of all I am not mentioned in the family tree and would like to know how I can be included. My tree is as follows: Nina M. (Rudd) Patterson (me) Oscar Carroll Rudd (father) John Benjamin Rudd (grandfather) Pinkney A Rudd (great grandfather Simon Bolivar Rudd (great great grandfather) Bryant Rudd (great great great grandfather) That is as far back as I know. My parents were divorced in 1949 and my father's sides of the family were not aware that I existed. I have tried to correspond with Hugh Rudd but he has never answered by email. I would like to know more about my father's side of the family and would appreciate any help you may give. Thanks for your help. Nina M. (Rudd) Patterson <mailto:Nina1092@home.com>Nina1092@home.com
