He’s Francis Williams Ruddle on his birth registration, mother’s maiden name Jones.

Likely parents: William Ruddle & Catherine Jones marr Mar qtr 1866 Llanrwst.

Francis is with a Sarah Thomas in 1881 as “nephew”. Do you know what happened to his parents?

If it's of any help, the marriage took place on Feb 1st 1866 at Pentrefoelas.
Both were of full age.
William was an architect and his father is recorded as Francis Ruddle, a builder.
Catherine's father was Owen Jones, an Innkeeper.
Witnesses - Francis Ruddle and Edward Jones

It looks very much like the family, Kay. I've not found Catherine with father, Owen, before the marriage so far.

Likewise sadly

I think this might be Francis in 1871 - mistranscribed at Broad Street (Elephant Hotel), Newtown, Montgomeryshire  I have not included all the servants
Elizabeth   Lloyd   Assistant   33   Montgomeryshire, Wales
Jane   Jones   Visitor   11   Merionethshire, Wales
Francis W   Buddee   Visitor   3   Pentrefoelas, Denbighshire,
Samuel   Edwards   56   Carmarthenshire, Wales
Margaret   Edwards   Servant 22   Denbighshire, Wales
Jane   Roberts   Servant   26   Merionethshire, Wales

The Schoolkeeper/Innkeeper for the inn appears to be Richard Benbow on the previous page - on Anc Ruddle is transcribed as Buddle!
