Thanks Gins and Glitter most helpful.

These are the ones that were missing from my tree but difficult to track through US and no idea of what eventually happened to them or their off-spring.

Added a little extra search request after initial one - this is family group in 1900 census

John H South 45
Anna M South 38
Nora M South 18
Salome P South 15
John Rud 20

Not sure if it should be Salome or Saloma but understand middle name P(earl)

Best wishes

Thank you Marie

Kentucky seems to be a link with her uncle Dudley

University of Florida
Also involved in the Statistics graduate education was a second faculty member of our department, Professor Dudley Eugene South. South was born in Creston, Ohio on August 31, 1900. He received the A.B. at the College of Wooster in 1922, then served as an Instructor of Mathematics at this college from 1922--1924. South was at the University of Kentucky with the rank of Instructor from 1924--1928. During this same time period, he also received the masters degree from the University of Michigan in 1927, then held the rank of Assistant Professor at Kentucky, while he must have done further graduate study during the summers; recall we have mentioned this method of advancement in Chapter 5. For South received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Michigan in 1939 and then was promoted to Associate Professor at Kentucky in 1939 and to the rank of Professor in 1943. During the academic year 1942--1943, Professor South visited the Florida State College for Women in Tallahassee (now F.S.U.), and left Kentucky for our department in 1952. During the 1950's, South supervised 10 masters theses in our department.
