RUDDOCK, Samuel (Grimwade p.379, 648)

[MCB]

He entered a maker’s mark at Goldsmiths Hall in 1810 from 35 Brunswick Street, Soho in partnership with Zachariah Jennings
He married Sophia Ring of St George parish, Southwark at St James, Piccadilly in 1812.
The christening record of son John at St James, Piccadilly in 1816 shows his father as a jeweller at Berwick Street.
The christening record of daughter Maria Frances at St Luke, Chelsea in 1819 shows her father as a jeweller at Black Hands Lane.
The christening record of son William at St Anne, Soho in 1822 shows his father as a jeweller at Compton Street.
The christening record of daughter Elizabeth Anne at St Giles in the Fields in 1834 shows her father as a jeweller at Denmark Street.
The entry in Grimwade’s Goldworkers list for Samuel Ruddock of Denmark Street in 1831 which has been supposed to be by a son therefore appears incorrect.
The burial of Samuel Ruddock aged 53 years was recorded at St Giles in the Fields in 1837; his last address was Denmark Street.
The 1841 UK Census shows his widow and family still at Denmark Street where son John was a jeweller and son William was an apprentice.
