Hi

Just a quickie

I have Robert T Rudd dying age 48, Ormskirk, Jun q 1930..
don't have the death cert yet but does anyone have access to any newspapers of the time that may tell his story? anything online?
mention of him in a family letter and that wife possibly getting money as a result of his death.
Thanks a bunch

Simone

I think Ormskirk papers are available on film at Ormskirk library. I'd give them a ring and ask.

Probate Register
RUDD Robert Temple of 48 Culme Road, West Derby Liverpool died 14 May 1930 at Southport, Lancashire Administration Liverpool 19 June to Annie Rudd Widow. Effects £154 15s 10d.

In 1930, £154 15s 0d would have the same spending worth of 2005's £5,171.75

Thanks Hilary, Mary, Brian will check with Ormskirk, and go have a look see mind you if he was still living in West Derby may be something in Liverpool papers will prob have to bite the bullet and get the death cert

If he was living in Southport their local papers are on film at Southport library and Crosby library.

However if his home address was in Liverpool you might be better with the Liverpool newspapers.

Ormskirk was the reg district for Southport.

thanks Hilary
