In January of 2009, I had the honor to visit the place named "Hudson's Mill", near where the five roads meet southeast of Bell's Crossroads. The patriarch of this family is William Hudson, b. 1797. William had two wives as shown below, and many members of this family are buried at the church of the Reverend Richard Bryan (now named Bethel Methodist, just south of Bells Crossroads). There are dozens of living people who are descended from these lines. DNA testing is now underway to determine if this family is from the same ancestor as my Isham Hudson and John Hudson lines. Although not 100% proven, a detailed and extensive speculative genealogy of William Hudson's ancestry is proposed at the following web site:
If anyone from this family has additional information, would like for me to add content here, or if you would like for me to link this page to another web site, then please send me an email or call me using the contact information at http://www.ronhudson.com .
