Have you found them on 1841 and 1851?

Just wondering if they were married before 1841 census and possible before registration began

Must be 2nd marriage for Alice also as Rudd children in 1851 are John's stepdaughters.

Margaret Ann Rudd's Baptism is available for you to view and download for a small fee from the Durham online site...

The record will certainly say whether the children were illegitimate when Christened...

Hello to everyone who has or is helping me on this query.
Many, many thanks to you all. This is a great help. Hopefully I can use all of this to help figure out name of Alice's father.

Thank you all again. Marie.

The 1841 census doesn't give relationships.

The marriage cert will give you her father's name.

The site Durham records online shows this

Burials Houghton-le-Spring William Rudd abt 1840 1845 Houghton

You may find a lot more on there regarding Alice.

The Durham site shows alot more if you register...you can then download the full record for a very small fee.... and to be fair the fee is alot less than travelling there!!!
