Hi -
I really don't know where this came from but it is incredibly incorrect.
Abraham Huddleston York b. 1 Jan 1844 was the uncle of Abraham 'Hudson' York, son of Larkin Blake York and Elizabeth 'Betsy' Mason, York. He was their 2nd born son, and Larkin named him after his younger brother, my great-grandfather, Abraham 'Huddleston' York. They also named sons for his father, Josiah Cowan York, Sr., and for his other three brothers. It would have been difficult for 'Hudson' to be married to either of the Wozencraft sisters - Laura was b. 1843 and d. 1873, leaving one son, William Thomas 'Tom Bill' (there were a lot of boys named this since William Thomas, oldest brother of Larkin Blake, Jasper Newton (d. of t. b. right after the war), Josiah Cowan, Sr., and Abraham Huddleston. Makes for a lot of confusion unless you are look at dates and rule out impossibilities. Emma Louise Wozencraft York, younger sister of Laura Virginia B. (prob. Blake), was b. 1852 and d. 1934. Again making it rather remote she was the wife of a boy born in 1861.
thanks for trying -
Diane

Hud York is listed as Hudson York on the 1880 Census with his parents.
Perhaps you need to try marriages after 1880 and see where that
takes you. Also, some from Polk Co. married in Borden Springs, AL,
just across the state line.
