THE HUDSONS

  notes by P John Partington

 

GEORGE JAMES HUDSON  (bef. 1827 - aft. 1860)

George James Hudson married Mary Dorothy Mumbray, and had at least one child, a son Albert Henry (known by his second name) born in 1842.  The family’s address at the time was 9 Red Lion Street, Kingsland Road in Shoreditch;  George was a ‘brass turner’.  He was working as a ‘lock maker’ at the time of Henry’s marriage in Shoreditch in 1861.  Nothing further is yet known of him.

 

THE CHILDREN OF GEORGE HUDSON  (bef. 1827 - aft. 1860)

George’s son Albert Henry (known as ‘Henry’) was born  at 9 Red Lion Street, Kingsland Road in Shoreditch on 5 December 1842.  On 6 October 1861 he married Elizabeth Flight, still in Shoreditch;  at the time they were living in Leonard Street, at numbers ten and sixteen respectively.  The couple seem to have had at least eight children – Henry born in 1862/3, Elizabeth in 1864/5, Alice in 1865/6, Matilda in 1867/8, Walter in 1869/70, Arthur in 1871/2, Charles in 1874 and Julia.  In 1881 the family were living at 25 Upper John Street in Hoxton:  Charles was working as a brass-finisher.  He died, it seems, in 1886.

Albert Henry’s seventh child, Charles Simon, was born on 19 December 1874, at 25 Upper John Street, Hoxton Old Town, Shoreditch;  in 1881 he was still there with his family – a ‘scholar’.  He married young, but his wife soon died, and on 1 August 1897, still in Shoreditch, he married Ada Negus (born in Shoreditch in about 1878, to James Negus, a ‘washer’), with whom he had at least six children:  Ada, born in about 1898, Charles in about 1900, Richard Henry in 1902, Albert William in 1904, Henry in about 1908 and Elsie M in 1910.  In 1901 Charles and his young family were in Hackney;  Charles was working as a painter.  Ten years later the family were living at 46 St John’s Road.

In 1881 Albert Henry’s eighth child, Julia, was with the family at 25 Upper John Street, Hoxton;  no age is recorded for her.
