Biography

Joseph (Hutchison) Hudson is a DAR Patriot Ancestor, A065449.

Joseph was the founder of the Township of Hudsonville which later became simply, Hudson. Joseph had also begun to use the surname, Hudson, after he left Bourbon County. He attempted to name his township Hutchison but learned from the postal service that his request was denied because another Hutchison Township already existed in Bourbon County, Kentucky. It was deemed likely that he changed his name to Hudson so that it would match the township he founded in Breckinridge County. He signed his will twice; once as Joseph Hutchison and again as Joseph Hudson.
