Born 13th Jan 1893: Ruth Ethelwyn, female. Father John G. Short; mother Mary Pattullo; father’s rank or profession, manufacturer. Informant: “John G. Short, Manufacturer, Woodstock.” Registered Feby 10 1893. Accoucheur: Dr Sinclair. Registrar: J. Eden [?]; the half-year’s returns certified by John Morrison, division registrar of Woodstock, 6 July 1893.
The record that proves Ruth’s parents, and with them the link to the Pattullos and Duff Pattullo. Her name is written as she later signed it, “Ethelwyn.” Her father, a hardware merchant in the 1880s, is now a manufacturer: he made organs (1891 census, as WikiTree summarises it).
