Spelling variants Raddex / Raddex

William Reddex and Mrs. Raddex are found in town in 1882. This is while the mine is transitioning ownership and the new company had sent men to assess the operation.

The Mine Manager during this brief period was Mr. Rutter / Rapter. It’s possible these are all the same man but I feel fairly confident that Mr. Rudder’s wife did not visit the town and so I’m inclined to believe Mr. Raddex was a specialist working under Mr. Rudder.
