Hi
I am searching for Michael John Rudge. He was born april 28th 1944, 153 Lower Clapton Road, London. His mothers name was Ellen Rudge born 1925 and her residence at the time was 4 Sun Street Waltham Abbey Essex.

I dont know if Michael settled down in England or in any other country. If so it could be in Canada or Australia.

Any information would be helpfull.
Roy

If I google map the address you have given for the birth of Michael John Rudge, I see the following.

153 Clapton Common
Hackney, London E5 9AE, UK

If I search Ancestry.com England and Wales Birth Index, only one birth fits the year, month and address. This one.

Name: Michael J Rudge
Mother's Maiden Surname: Rudge
Date of Registration: Apr May Jun 1944
Registration district: Hackney
Registration county: Greater London
Volume Number: 1b

Interesting that the mothers maiden name and the childs name are the same. Does that fit.

Perhaps you can write to obtain the Death Certificate which may contain further information about the deceased or his family. Here is what Ancestry.com has to say about the Index. You wil need to use the informatin given in the death registration record posted above.

Source Information
Ancestry.com. England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2005 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2007.
Original data: General Register Office. England and Wales Civil Registration Indexes. London, England: General Register Office. © Crown copyright. Published by permission of the Controller of HMSO and the Office for National Statistics. You must not copy on, transfer or reproduce records without the prior permission of ONS. Indexes created by the General Register Office, in London, England.

About England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2005
Country wide civil registration of births, marriages and deaths commenced on 1 July 1837 in England and Wales. Registration took place at local civil registrars who in turn reported to the Registrar General at the General Register Office (GRO) in London. This national index to vital records is an essential source of genealogical information for family historians.

Since the original birth, marriage and death registers are not open to the public, getting access to the information on one of these certificates is done by first searching the national birth, marriage and death indexes, that have been created by the GRO for this purpose. The indexes for the three events are divided into volumes by year following which entries are listed alphabetically. Once an entry in one of the indexes is found, you are then able to use that information to order of copy of a death, marriage or birth certificate from the GRO. Information that can be obtained from the death index includes:

Full name of individual

Month and year of registration

Age at time of death

Birth date

Registration district (each county in England and Wales was divided up into registration districts. Jurisdictions are organized and appear as they existed at the time the record was created)

Inferred county (the county is inferred based on what counties the registration district covered)

Volume number

Page number

Note: The district listed is the district where the event was registered, not necessarily the location where the event actually occurred.

Here is a link to the website where after you register I think you can order a copy of the Death Certificate.
