Thanks again, Madonna. Don't know where I got my information, but I show Martha Robertson's parents as Nathan and Eliza Anderson Robertson. Is this the same family as yours? And I have a Mollie Cecil who married Joseph V. Brown in Wolfe County, Kentucky in 1900. Mollie was born in 1882 Wolfe County. And I have a Houston Hudson who married Leona Tuxford in Adams County, Illinois. Seems the Hudsons, Tuxfords, Rusts, and Littletons intermarried quite a bit. Leona Tuxford's brother Edward Grant Tuxford married Emma Rust, sister to my grandfather Charles Henry Rust. Supposedly Emma ran away with another man - left the kids with Edward. Then, he soon abandoned the kids and was last heard of in 1910 in Eldorado, Colorado. Then, never again. Three of his sisters had him declared legally dead in El Reno, Oklahoma in 1929 as they could not find him to settle their parents estate. I believe there were 3 kids and I'm sure they wound up in an Orphanage in Oklahoma City. No one seems to know where Emma went, either. One of the kids was born about 1909 and was named Walter. Thanks again. Please keep in touch. Bud Caudle

Bud, There apparently were several different Hudson families in Adams Co. However, it is the same Robertson family. Nathan & Eliza were my 3rd great grandparents. Now that I have thought about it, I was aware my 2nd great grandmother's (Sarah Ann Robertson Cecil) sister, Martha, married a Hudson also. He was not related to my great grandfather,James J. Hudson, who married Mary Jane Cecil (Sarah A. Robertson Cecil's daughter). When James J. Hudson's parents came to Adams Co.in 1868, his aunt's family (Elizabeth Ann Hudson Adair) were among those traveling with them. Elizabeth ("Wife of J.R. ADAIR") died 3 Jun 1898 and is buried near her brother Wm. T. Hudson in the Gray Cemetery at Coatsburg. Does anyone know anything about the descendents of Elizabeth Hudson Adair?
