Research Notes

Unsourced notes from Reeds-18 suggest that the land David received in 1771 became the Hudson family homestead, where most of his children were born. After the death of his wife, David established a life tenancy agreement, whereby on his death, his estate would be divided equally among his surviving children. At that time, son David Junior acquired the portions allotted to his siblings, and the homestead was subsequently passed to his son Abner. In 1853 it was passed to a James W. Garnett, and was out of the family by 1910. The home was used as headqarters for the Union forces in the Battle of Cedar Mountain during the Civil War.
