• Notes

  He was baptized with the name Georgium (in latin) and went by the name of Joe. After Joe's father's death, the children were sent to an orphanage while Mary went to work at a boarding house. Joe was adopted for a while by a family who thought he was German. When they discovered he wasn't, they neglected him and he ran back to the orphanage at St. Marys. As an adult, he worked as a laborer and carpenter. He was living in Hamlin, McKean Co., PA in the 1930 census, married and with 4 children. He was a fireman for the brickworks and living next to his stepbrother, Tony Cesario and cousin, John Perilla. He listed his parents birthplace as Czechoslovakia. He lived in Kushequa, Pennsylvania when his son George Joseph was honored in 1951 by becoming President of his Chical Engineering group in college. Joe retired as a employee of Kaul Clay Products. (D-45, 164) His obituary gives some incrongruos dates with those believed to be accurate by his son George. It gives his birth date as Oct. 22, 1899 in Dubois, PA, the son of George and Mary Wolfe Dudick. It says he married Grizelda James on Jan. 12, 1933. He was a member of St. Joseph's Church. The information was provided by Joes's youngest daughter, and George Joseph, Jr. clearly disagrees with the place of birth as provided by his sister. His birth record, entered by a doctor that made many errors in submitting this families births, stated that Joseph Dudick was born Nov. 5, 1899 at Hill St. Extention, Johnsonburg, PA. His baptismal record, has a birth date of Oct. 24 with his baptism on Oct. 28, 1899. I'm taking this one as the accurate one because it was extremely close to the event and because of the other multiple errors in the birth records on this family. (D-164, 184, 191) As for his death, he was visiting his son, George, at Painted Post, NY when he suffered a heart attack and died. (D-191d)
