I think I may be the only first generation Ridout in NZ
Hey,
My name is Grant David Ridout and I have little information at all about my family history as my parents immigrated to New Zealand (as far as I've seen in the telephone books I'm the only first generation Ridout in NZ). I have been told that the name is of Norman origin, would this be correct?
It's nice to see so many people with the same surname, a real change.
