Dear List Members:

I have recently discoverd that Anna Cecila Perkins married Squire B. Rude of Liberty. They had at least one child Frank J. Rude listed on the census of 1880. It states that his occupation was the manufacture of Agriclutural implements. Can any one tell me of the Rude Manufacturing Company I think it started in 1875. What did they make and how long did it last? Thanks in advance.
