In the Matter of Henry Hudson Report of the Proceedings of August 7, 1897 [illegible] Anderson

[Page 1]

In the High Court of Justice Chancery Division

In the matter of the Estate of Henry Hudson decd.

This Case came before the Courts on the 7th. August when the persons entitled were finally ascertained.

The Estate with the accumulated Interest will produce clear, nearly £48,000. This will be divisible into twelve primary shares as representing the Nephews and Nieces of the Testator’s Brothers and Sister; each of which twelve shares will of course be sub-divided again according to their respective families.

In the case of Henry Hudson, the Son of the Testator’s brother William Hudson, who married ...rch [Thurch?] Lawton, the £4000 is divisible among the following persons:- Mary, now living Henry, the oldest Son and Heir at Law of Enoch Thomas Lawton The Heir at Law of Thomas Hudson, who is the said Henry Hudson The Heir at Law of Emma Hudson, who was declared to have died in 1877 or 20 years after her Father. John Hudson and Ann Chilton.

It will be noted that William & John who died when Infants do not take a share because they did not survive their Parent. By the terms of the Will the share of the Parent went amongst the issue that were left: that is to say Henry Hudson who married Thurcy Lawton, at the time of his death in 1857 left Mary Hudson, Enoch Lawton Hudson, Thomas Hudson, Emma Hudson, John Hudson, and Ann Chilton & they take this share.

Now the next point is, it will occur of course that the share of Emma & the share of Thomas should go amongst the other equally. This is not so, because it is real property which goes to their Heir at Law, and not to their next of kin. The Heir at Law would be Enoch Lawton Hudson the eldest brother & his only Son takes their share.
