Hi Robert. Funny finding you here you just gave us an estimate for a central air unit. ha ha. AND We went to grade school together. Ok. I found your great grandfather Sylvester Hudson living in Doniphan Co KS in 1857 census. He was living with a Benjamin Hudson, James Hudson, and Richard B Hudson. Next, I found Elizabeth Hudson, Margaret, Jane Alex and Charles in 1865 census also in Doniphan co KS wayne township. In 1870 still in KS in Doniphan co. Wayne twp (which is again Wayne township) In this census we find the whole family...Sylvester and wife Nancy, sons Hugh, Benjamin, Powell, and Charles. Other Hudson's on the same census page too.(probably relatives) On these census Sylvester is listed as being born in MO,and KS and TN. My bet would be KS. Lots of family right there. Firt one to rule out and easy to check at the Troy library, they have a geneaology dept and very helpful there. You could check the Troy Courthouse too. I would start in KS at the library, it is all free, and then check out the NW MO Genealogy society in St Joe on Felix. It is 2.00 to visit there each time, or 15.00 for the whole year and they have soooo much info you are sure to find some answers there. They even have a big file cabinet with other family members inform. and what they are searching for. Good luck on your search.
