I am the daughter of John Rudolph; My mother Clarence was married to John Rudolph and they had Kevin, Trevor, Ernie, Glenda, Patricia, Maureen and myself, Johannebefore they seperated; both went on to have other children in other relationships, Dad and Rena Faithfull had my 2 half siblings together, Charles and Lydia.My married name is now Freeman.

Kia Ora, I am the grandaughter of Alice Lizzie Rudolph. I am named Roberta after Robert Rudolph, I presume John Robert Rudolph? Iam currently researching our whakapapa and would welcome any info on the family particularly more info on Wilhelm Rudolph.

Kia Ora, I am the grandaughter of Alice Lizzie Rudolph. I am named Roberta after Robert Rudolph, I presume John Robert Rudolph? All of your names are familiar to me. I visited the home in Grey Lynn many times as a child. Iam currently researching our whakapapa and would welcome any info on the family particularly more info on Wilhelm Rudolph.
