Hi

I, my name is John Duddington, now living in Leicester, I originally came from Whittlesey, near Peterborough, Cambridge. I believe Duddington family had been living in Whittlesey for about 250 years. I am the last person born in Whittlesey!. At the moment I am interesting to know the Duddington family history and what happen to them now. I would be grateful if you inform and assist me anything you may have some knowledge of Duddington family history?, where are they? Or have some information in internet?

There is gravestone of George Duddington at whittlesey cemetry i wonder you may know that ?

Thanks

John Duddington

Hi Jean, thanks for getting in touch. I'm new to rearching my family line, so I think I will start from my immediate family and gather all the information that I can. I will defiantly keep in touch and keep you posted. Whats funny is that I found an entry under the Duddington thread posted by my Grandmother. I had no idea she was using this site as well, it really is a small world :)

Hi Linda,
Great to hear from you! Seems so long since I posted that message. I also come from a small family of Duddingtons living in the South West of Western Australia. My father came directly from the Duddingtons in the UK and arrived in Australia in the 50's on a ship. Did you visit the village of Duddington while you were in the UK?
My Grandfathers name was Arthur Duddington and he has a brother David Duddington and also had a sister Margaret.
I am currently working up in Michigan. Would love to know more but my Uncle and my Mother are definately the family
historians. Look forward to learning more.

Well, we live in the United States, in Texas.. our name of Duddington is the only one that we have found here other than our own relatives... We were surprised to see the name so popular in England.. it is funny to see our name on the internet under different catagories.. Glad to know there are
others ..if you have any history of this name please let us know,, short fat man is halarious, but not very flattering..
we would love to hear from you...you never know we may be
related. Please write back..........Linda Duddington

That's great! I know a bit about the naughty vicar (ran off with my future grandmother when she was a student at London University) and the friendship with Bernard Shaw, but secret agent? That's something else - look forward to further details!

I have lots of information re Jack and will put it all together and E-Mail you at K.Aron7@ntlworld if this is still your address. I have sent stuf on Australia to this email address.

The info on jack includes memoirs of a secret agent, a naughty vicar, George Bernard Shaw, and a Russian novelist.
There is so much that it may have to be broken down into seperate messages.

We share a GGG Grandfather John Duddington 1804 - 1851

Hello, sorry not to have replied - have been away on holiday. Have you any knowledge of a Jack Duddington (my paternal grandfather), who lived in London, but I seem to remember did have relatives in Perth, Australia? He died many years ago (must have been about 1958/9 or so) at the age of 92. He was married to a Russian, his second wife and my grandmother. I believe that his first wife had been called Iris.

Hi Jodie
I was intrigued to read your discovery about the origins of the name! I have never heard this, but I do know there is a village (or town, maybe, by now, in Rutland-the smallest county in England, which is called Duddington. My parents took me and my two sisters there just to visit the place with our name!
Maybe our ancestors came from there ages ago1

Hello to anyone else interested in tracing Duddington ancestry! My email address has changed slightly please note.My paternal grandfather John (known as Jack) Duddington had relatives in Australia (I think he had a sister called Iris who lived in Perth) this would have been a good many years ago, as he was about 90 when he died, which must have been in about 1959. Any connections out there?

What does Duddington mean?

2003-07-26 08:49:30Z

Hi,

I live in Perth, Western Australia. Went back to the UK for a family re-union about two years ago. Was determined to find out what DUDDINGTON meant. Discovered the word "DUDD" means "short, fat man". So essentially i think the name means "town of the son of a short, fat man". I think this is hilarious. Can anyone confirm this for me?
