I'm sorry Kay, I don't recognize any of those names. I see that Ron has responded to you, he might be your best bet if y'all can connect something. And I do know that there were some Rudd head of households in 1850 AL that stated they were from TN, and that's up towards your area. I think they are probably a part of our Rudd lines way back, but I've not been able to look into that as of yet. I think Ron has looked at every Rudd in GA and AL. It sure would be great if you can help each other. Linda Rudd
