I am searching for information on D.H. RUDD b. ca. 1902 and was in the Dairy business around Abilene, Texas in the 1920's. He was either married to or had an aquaintance with, Juanda BRESLER (?) b. ca. 1905. They had a child together, Louise Marie RUDD b. 4/4/1923. The baby was given up for adoption at the West Texas Childrens' Home run by Rev. W.A. NICHOLES and adopted by T.U. & Bessie OLIVER on 7/20/1923. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you, Rita DonCarlos

Hi! I have just forwarded this email to Tracy Hays in Longview, Texas. If the two of you are not related or friends, then you should contact each other because you are both looking for the same person. Tracy and I crossed paths several months ago when I was looking for a Harvey D. Rudd. I found mine. He died in 1960 and the story was a good one and my friend (that I was doing the research for) found lots of relatives that were thrilled to find out she existed! She was adopted in 1939, her mother was 15 and old Harvey was 45 and they were never married. He never did marry and died in 1960. Her mother married and had two other children and she died in 1980, but all the children and living relatives on both sides have been found and they have all been wonderful to my friend. It has been a real blessing for me to help and I do hope that you and Tracy Hays are able to finally track down this Daniel H. Rudd and answer all your questions. I have been invited to a Rudd reunion myself in April and I will ask about the circumstances of your search and see if anyone knows a Daniel that might be your person. If I do I will contact Tracy...so if you do not know her, her email as I have it is tmhays@texramp.net and her address is Tracy Hays, 704 Rockwall Drive, Longview, Texas 75604. Good luck in your search.
