- William Tottington Rudd was the fourth child born to William Rudd (1775-1821) and his wife, Mary Anderson. Both of his parents were born in England, his father having specified that he was born in Nottinghamshire. The entire Rudd family endured the War of 1812 and many of them also endured the Civil War in Alexandria as well. William Tottington's father, William, died in Alexandria in 1821 and there are no clues as to what happened to his mother.
When William Tottington was a young man, he moved to Amsterdam, Botetourt County, VA where he met and married his wife, Lydia Amanda Hutchins on July 28, 1832. William Tottington Rudd established himself as a cabinet maker in Botetourt County. He and Lydia were the parents of five children: Mary Ann, John Wesley, George Washington, James William and Matilda Jane.
The Civil War was not kind to Botetourt County and the end of that war saw many families leaving the war's destruction and moving to Iowa. William Rudd and his family were among those who headed for Iowa.
William and Lydia were in Logan, Harrison County, Iowa by December of 1873. Lydia died on December 14 of that year in Logan. After Lydia's death, William remained in Iowa until about 1896 when left many of his family members and moved to Downey, California, where he died in 1898.
William Tottington Rudd was the only one of William and Mary's children to leave the Washington DC/Alexandria VA area. So he is responsible for many of the Rudds we find today in Botetourt County, Virginia as well as Harrison County, Iowa and Los Angeles County, California.

Inscription:
No marker has been found, but cemetery records called William "William Toddington Rudd". He was the grandson of John Rudd and Elizabeth Tottington, thereby indicating that his middle name, like that of many of his sibings, is Tottington, not Toddington. Cemetery records also indicate that he was born in 1810, but Alexandria records give the date stated on this memorial. It should be noted that at that time, Alexandria was a part of the District of Columbia.

Subject: RE: William Tottington Rudd I need to add all the notes....William T. Rudd and his family were in Alexandria when the british invaded during the War of 1812...his father was a shopkeeper...Alexandria surrendered rather than be burned down..... Maybe this is the same info you already have...I will check your website....and I'll let you know when I add anything.....Sue
William Rudd and his family immigrated from England between 1801 and 1807. He died in 1821 in Alexandria which was in the District of Columbia. (Reverted back to Virginia in 1846)
During the War of 1812, the British burned several buildings including the White House in Washington, DC, on 24 August 1814. They then invaded Alexandria. In order to keep the British from destroying the town, Alexandria's inhabitants surrendered and gave them their food and supplies. William Rudd was a shopkeeper and the Rudd children were between the ages of 5 and 18 at the time.

Gene.....this is the sampler Ann Tottington Rudd (William's sister) made and is quite famous.....it was the key to my finding William and his family.....in books, magazines...and even on this site from the library....it has always said Ann "Torrington" Rudd......
You can plainly see that she stitched Tottington......
I noticed your ancestry profile said you live in virginia.....is there any chance you could get them to make this correction...??
Like maybe take your shoe off and pound it on the table......didn't anybody ever notice it said Tottington...!!!
I'm going to try and put this on "Crane - Grady" genealogy.....I'll let you know when I get it finished....
