Hi Leslee,
only recently I found your post on Robert DUDICK/DUDECK that hasn't been answered yet. A friend of mine and I are researching families of German descent in Nanticoke, PA.
Robert DUDICK/DUDECK was born February 27, 1887 in Nanticoke, PA / died October 5, 1914 in Mulga, AL (aged 27 yrs, 6 months) He was killed in a coalmine gas explosion in Mulga Mine, Mulga AL that also killed 15 other miners. He was taken back to Nanticoke for burial in the Nanticoke City Cemetery, Lot 198 (the burial permit dates from October 10, 1914).
That link has a picture of the mine: http://www.msha.gov/century/colliery/colliery.asp (Picture No.10).
The death of Robert ("Bob DUDICK") is also mentioned here:

or here:

Robert was the son of Christian DUDECK and Eva (KIEHL/KIEL/KEIL) DUDECK.
Christian and Eva were both born in Prussia/Germany. Christian immigrated in 1880 and Eva came over with her parents in 1874. Both seem to have been married in Easley, Pickens Co., South Carolina in the second half of 1880.
Best wishes
