Per Decendants of Lynn Banks Hudson a 9 page typed family history
I. Jenings Price Hudson b. February 26, 1838; d. June 26, 1913
The following information has been gathered through the kind cooperation of some of the many grand-children and great grand-children and is preserved here in loving memory of our common ancestors and gallant forebears for the benefit of the youngest living and those yet to come.
There are, as yet unconfirmed, reports that the ancestors of Lynn Banks Hudson came from England and settled in Virginia. According to Amherst County, Va., official records Joshua Hudson, Jr. married Elizabeth Banks on November 1, 1784. His father, for whom he was named, was very much alive as were his brothers and sisters: i.e. Sarah Hudson "right, Rush Hudson, Mary Hudson Dawson, Elizabeth Hudson Dennis (Joshua, Jr.) Reuben Hudson, George Hudson, Frances Hudson Tate, Ann Hudson Gillespie, Lucy Hudson Sandidge, Peggy Hudson Childress, Molly Hudson Balenger, Rachel Hudson Mills, Patsy Hudson Rucker. They were mentioned in his father's will in 1801, as was his father's brother, Robert Hudson's, heirs: i.e. Bennett Hudson, Edmund Hudson, and Permelia Hudson, his first cousins.
The tax rolls of Virginia show only one Joshua Hudson in Amherst County in 1783. Presumably, Joshua, Jr. was still living at home. Lincoln County, Ky. tax rolls show a Joshua Hudson in 1787, and those of Fayette County, Ky. show a Joshua Hudson on February 26, 1790. Joshua Hudson, Jr.'s will was probated in 1793. His executors were his father and his brother Reuben. He left two children, Nancy Hudson and Horatio Hudson, "infants." So Horatio must have been born about 1787. Hence he would have been 14 when his grandfather died in 1801.
The Garrard County, Ky., census for 1810 shows Oratio Hudson "under 26" (he would be 23), married, the father of two boys under 10. The 1820 census record shows Arasha Hudson "26-45", married; with a son "10-16" and three boys and a girl "under 10." The first mention in the Garrard County land grant books has Arasha Hudson buying 242 acres on Sugar Creek in 1827.
There were 17 in his household in 1830, including 6 slaves: Arstia "40-50", is wife, 2 sons "20-30", 1 son "15-20", a boy and a girl "10-15", 2 sons "5-10", and a boy and a girl "under 5." In 1832 he bought 75 more acres and finally in 1835 Arasha Hudson bought 45 more acres, all on Sugar Creek. These children were Joshua and James, Washington B., Lynn Banks and Nancy, Isaiah B.. and Reuben, and Melvina and Commodore Perry Hudson. (According to W. W. Clayton's History of Davidson County, Tennessee, there was another daughter, Mary Louisa) Lynn Banks and Isaiah married sisters: the latter marrying Margaret Schooler; the former, Eliza Schooler.
Lynn Banks Hudson was born January 3, 1816. He studied medicine and in 1837 (?) married Eliza, the daughter of Margaret Royston and Benjamin Schooler. Eliza was born August 15 1817 and died November 12, 1886. Dr. L. B. Hudson died January 27, 1897. They had 11 children, all born at the Sugar Creek farm. Dr, Hudson was a surgeon in the Confederate Army. In 1866, Dr. Hudson moved to Fern Creek, Two Miles Precinct, Newberg Post Office Jefferson County, Ky. The Garrard County, Ky. census of June 8, 1860 revealed that he owned real estate valued at $17,000 and a personal estate valued at $25,000, and listed him as an M. D. In the census of Jefferson County, June 4, 1870 his real estate was valued at $47,900 and his personal estate at $10,000. The house, 10 miles out of Louisville on the Bardstown Road, is now the Wildewood Country Club, The children were:

I. Jennings Price Hudson b. February 26, 1838; d. June 26, 1913
II. Lytle Royston Hudson b. 839; d.
III. Benjamin Dudley Hudson b. April 5, 1840; d. March 1, 1885
IV. Eliza Hudson b. 1842, d. May, 1922
V. WIlliam Butler Hudson b. June 19, 1844; d. April 7, 1902
VI. An infant son b. December 13, 1845; d. January 19, 1846
VII. Lynn Washington Hudson b. 1846; d. 1933
VIII. An infant son b. June 16, 1849; d. 1849 (?)
IX. Nancy Hudson b. September 6, 1853; d. February 25, 1906
X. John Banks Hudson b. April 6, 1856; d. April 25, 1881
XI. Allan Burton Hudson b. November 21, 1858; d. June 12, 1897.

In July 1895 Dr. Hudson told his grand-daughter, Elizabeth Mae Mathers, that his father and mother, Horatio Hudson and Margaret Banks, had come to Kentucky in a covered wagon from Culpepper County, Va. with her parents, John Banks, and Mary Collier Banks, They were related, possibly cousins. He thought Horatio's mother was a Miss McKenzie. (But see the Amherst County records above.)

Dr. Lynn Banks Hudson's second child was a school teacher when he was 21. He married Catherine Champion and soon moved to Tennessee. His uncle, Washington B. Hudson, had settled near Wesley's Bend. He enlisted in a Confederate regiment, was commissioned, then transferred to a Kentucky outfit after he came up there on a raid. Both he and his brother, William Butler Hudson, were in General John H. Morgan's command. Lytle was shot and killed in a political argument. He left six children: Henry Champion Hudson (b. 1861; d. ? ); Jessie Hudson, (b. 1864; d. October 1954 in Florida); Lytle Royston Hudson, Jr. (b. 18 ?, d. ?); James Hudson (b. 18 ?, d. ?); Morgan Hudson (b. 18 ?, d. ?); Guy Hudson (b. 1883; f ?). Two of the children were killed accidentally early in life.
