There are two possible sources for the birth location of John Peter Hudson in South Carolina. 1. The 1777 Oath of Allegiance for Pittsylvania County Virginia List compiled by Captain William Witcher, John's future father-in-law, shows "John P. Hudson from S. Carolina." Note there are at least two transcriptions of signatories to the Oath of Allegiance for Pittsylvania; One is mere a listing of names. The other shows more detail, including the reference to John P Hudson's origin. 2. Another source is the death record for Drury Hudson (1814-1876), the son of John and Elizabeth Hudson, recorded in Green Co., KY which states that Drury's father John was born in "S. Carolina" and his mother Elizabeth was born in Virginia.
