[Captain John Bunch.ged]
(Captain) Charles Hudson was listed as a tithable in St. Paul's Parish
1720. He signed processioner's reports February 7, 1727/8 and September
9, 1739. In the latter report was a recommendation that John Wingfield
"be put in procession Master in the room of Charles Hudson".
He was elected a Vestryman of St. Paul's Parish January 2, 1726/7 and
attended vestry meetings regularly. June 15, 1730, he was elected Church
Warden. So far as the record shows his last attendance was
"7ber/11/1739".
April 25, 1743, Charles Hudson resigned from the vestry, "being under
such Bodily Infirmitythat I am unable to act in that station *** given
under my hand and seal the XXV day of April MDCCXLIII".
Land grants to Charles Hudson are too numerous tobe listed here.
They embraced large tracts in Hanover, Goochland, Amelia, Louisa. His
grants were dated as early as 1724 and as late as 1745. One of these in
1827 was for 2,000 acres on both sides of Hudson's Creek, southside of
South Anna River.
