| Hattie Hudson Wannall was one of four children of James Barecliff Hudson,
who, according to family word-of-mouth, was a direct descendant of the
famous explorer, Henry Hudson, discoverer of the Hudson Bay for the Dutch
in 1609. The link was documented in a hand-written memo by Hattie's
grandson's wife, Maxine Wilkens Wannall. You may view a photo copy
of the note by clicking on the "Genealogy Notes" button below. We know
from inherited memorabilia and genealogical research that Hattie and her
husband Charles lived at 4335 Ashland Avenue, St. Louis, Missouri, in 1890,
where Hattie was employed as a school teacher. We are continuing
our research and hope to report more about Charles and Hattie soon.
