I am posting this message on behalf of Mr Roy Bardsley from Saddleworth, Yorkshire. Has anyone any details of the RODDIS family of Whiston, near Rotherham? Roy's 4 x G Grandfather Aaron RODDIS, stonemason, appears to have originated from Whiston. He married Mary SHAW of Black Leach, Austerlands, Saddleworth at St Chads Church, Saddleworth in 1772.
Assuming he was between 20 and 30 years of age at the time he was married makes him born between 1742 and 1751.
Is anyone else researching this surname in/from the Whiston area or if anyone can help, please contact me.
Hilary
