Notes
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Hudson-4585
The only record thus far uncovered of William Hudson is the administration of his estate, granted on 6 Mar 1729/30 to widow Sarah. A Rush Hudson served as her security.
Two Rush Hudsons, a father and son, lived in Virginia during this time. The elder Rush was named in the will of his father Joshua in 1704. He died in 1735 (administration of his estate was recorded, but no will has been found). His widow Sarah remarried Edward Turberville. Sarah Turberville wrote her will in 1760, naming her son, the younger Rush, who was still living.
This William Hudson is not mentioned in any of the wills of his possible immediate family—perhaps understandably, as he predeceased all of them—nor are any of his children, so the question of his origin and relationship to them is unresolved.

THE HUDSON FAMILY
of Westmoreland County, Virginia
By his wife, Elizabeth Rush, Joshua Hudson was the father of:
WILLIAM HUDSON was born, perhaps around 1698 and died before 6 March 1729/30 when administration on his estate was granted to his widow, Sarah Hudson, with security by Rush Hudson. Sarah Hudson married 2ndly, Benjamin Settle, and left a will as Sarah Settle, written 9 Dec 1750 and proved in King George County on 2 Jan 1755. Therein she named as heirs, son William Hudson and daughter Lucy Hudson and grandson William Allan. [Will Book A, p. 39-41]. Her daughter, Lucy Hudson, also left a will, written 24 July 1756 and proved 2 Sept 1756 wherein she named as her heirs, brother William Hudson, sisters Ann Housley, Martha Peril and Elizabeth Allan, and cousins Samuel Peril and Pine Housley. [Will Book A, p. 52-53] William Hudson was the father of:
ANN HUDSON. Born, perhaps 1716/7. Her 1st husband is not known, but the marriage was brief, producing a son, John, born about 1733/4. Her 2nd husband was Thomas Owsley II of Fairfax County. Thomas II accepted Ann’s son, John, as his own, and thus, as John Owsley I he founded the Tennessee branch of the Owsley family. Ann went on to bear her husband 8 more children and survived her husband’s death in 1750. She was named Ann Housley in the 1756 will of her sister Lucy Hudson which is the latest date that can be established for certain that she was yet living.
