Rudkin - Lincolnshire, ENG->Arkansas, USA
- Lincolnshire
I am searching desperately for information on John R. Rudkin, my gr grandfather. He was born in Lincolnshire, ENG. I have three significant events each with a different birthdate: US Civil War Enlistment shows BD as 1824; Cleveland Co, AR, USA 1870 Census shows BD as 1833; and Jefferson Co, AR, USA 1870 Census shows BD as 1832. The earliest date that I have in his war record is 1861. I need to connect the dots from Lincolnshire ENG to Jefferson County Arkansas, USA. There was a John Rudkin, illigitimate son of Louisa Rudkin (Louisa's parents were Daniel Rudkin and Alice Fryer) who married David Meyers. They were listed on the 1851 Census(info provided by another researcher)living at 101 Pipe Makers Lane, Boston, Lincolnshire, ENG with children David and George and Louisa's illigitimate son John Rudkin. This family migrated to Canada. This is a good possibility, but I haven't been able to connect from Canada to Jefferson County Arkansas USA. Hoping for a response.
