Rudd children

[LDaw]

Probably an easy query for those of you with the right accesses...

William Rudd married Martha Green 25/12/1834.

William was baptised 22/02/1835.
Mary Ann was baptised 21/04/1839.
William (2) was baptised 06/03/1842.
John was baptised 15/08/1847.

The census returns include the following:
Michael c1845
Henry c1845
Martha c1850
Susan c1845

Michael and Henry never appear on the same census and Henry's middle name is Michael.  I suspect they are one person but have no concrete evidence.

I'm struggling to get baptism or birth verification for Michael, Henry, Martha or Susan.

All current evidence points to them being in Norwich (St Michael Coslany/Thorn Street).

Thanks

Martha c1850
Susan c1845

Have you ruled out Martha Ann Rudd, birth reg Mar qtr 1850 Norwich, per FreeBMD?

Susan does not appear in 1851 and is only 7 in 1861, so 1845 doesn't look like the right birthdate for her.

She's still with her parents in 1881 as Susan W. Rudd (26), so the birth reg for Susan Walden Rudd, Jun qtr 1854 Norwich, looks promising.  Again, the index details are available from FreeBMD.

Not seeing any baptism's but as avm has posted seen the same
Henry Michael Rudd Oct-Dec 1846 Norwich
Martha Ann Rudd Jan-Mar 1850 Norwich
Susan Walden Rudd Apr-June 1854 Norwich
Only one way to find out is the Birth certificate

Typo for Susan.  Year of birth should be c1854.  (I was only checking my spelling when I proof-read.  Rookie mistake!)

Have you run across a William Harrison Rudd?  He was the author of an 1879 article about Harrisons of Great Yarmouth, Notes and Queries.  (Notes and Queries, Oxford Press [this is a book, perhaps a bound volume of a periodical] 5th S., 8 February 1879, pages 114-115.)  Do you know who his parents were?  Thank you.
