      For identification only, this researcher sometimes calls this group of
      Hudsons and their descendants, the *** HUDSONS OF MARYLAND ***.
      Richard I's sons' NICHOLAS and HENRY moved to Maryland which was a
      refuge for Quakers. There was a dispute over land on the cape between
      Maryland and Virginia. Lord Baltimore and William Penn werein the midst
      of organizing their Quaker colonies at this time and causing this boundry
      dispute with Virginia. It is suspected that Nicholas and Henry were
      Quakers through Elizabeth Freeman and the move to Maryland. A look at
      Henry'sgrandchildren through William and Sarah Hudson also supports the
      Quaker connection. Source: Van Hudson.
      Henry might have been born in England. Some reports show him as being
      born in Accomack County but this cannot be as Richard emmigrated to
      America 1633/34. The possibility exist that Henry was left behind inthe
      care of others when Richard left England. Charle Smith, a Hudson
      decendent, states in her research that Henry did not arrive Hungars
      Creek, Va. until he was 17 years old.
      Sometime between 1662 and 1665 Henry married Lydia Smith and soon
      thereafter moved to Somerset County, Maryland. They lived in Morumscoin
      Somerset County. On Sept. 4, 1666 Henry registered his cattle mark which
      was a Fleur-de-Leis the same mark that his Father richard had used for
      his livestock. Upon registering his cattle mark Henry spelled his last
      name as "Huttson" and used this spelling for many years. This information
      is from "They lived in Somerset", 17th Century Marylanders" by Wilmer O.
      Lankford. All of Henry and Lydia's children were born in Somerset County,
      starting with Lydia on Mar.8. 1666.
      Henry was the owner of many acres of land and in his will he left half
      of "Mentmore, where I now live" to Jonathan. John received the other
      half.Henry Jr. received "Jones adventure", Richard received "Harrogate",
      David to have "Poplar Ridge", Sarah to have six cows and household items
      , Elizabeth and Rachel to share with their mother. Above information and
