I think you have one too many g's on gggggranddad and you posted "John Andrew Jackson Hudson, he is related to me from Martin Luther Hudson"
actually:
JOHN ANDREW JACKSON HUDSON, b. January 07, 1857,
Assacorkin Island, Worcester County, MD; d. July 13, 1909,
North Beach, Assateague Island, Worcester County, MD.
is the twelfth child GEORGE HUDSON and SUSAN BIRCH
George was married two previous times, consecutively MARY RICHARDSON & MAHALA HARRINGTON.
Here's more on George:
GEORGE E.10 HUDSON (MAJOR9, SAMUEL8, JONATHAN7, JONATHAN6, HENRY5, RICHARD4, WILLIAM3, HENRY2, "GENTLEMAN" HENRY1) was born March 17, 1807 in Box Iron, Worcester County, MD, and died February 17, 1894 in Portersville, Worcester County, MD. He married (1) MARY B. RICHARDSON January 23, 1834. She was born April 17, 1813, and died February 28, 1838. He married (2) MAHALA HARRINGTON September 04, 1839. She was born July 23, 1819, and died October 30, 1840. He married (3) SUSAN R. BIRCH March 29, 1842. She was born May 29, 1824 in Worcester County, MD, and died January 11, 1859.
Notes for GEORGE E. HUDSON:
George E. is buried beside his son George J. in the Methodist Episcopal Cemetery on Route 366 in Stockton, Maryland. George J's son Thomas and wife Abby are buried there also. George J. and Abby's son Thomas died the same week as George E. who was living with his son George J. in Portersville at the time of his death. In Jul. of 2001 I, (Bill Hudson), my wife Mary Jane Fitzgerald-Hudson, and my mother Barbara J. Hudson visited George's grave and once prior in Jul, 2000. The grave marker appears relatively new and I suspect a family member placed it in recent years.
George E. was the owner of Assacorkin Island in Chincoteague Bay. Here his children were born and raised. He was a Oysterman, Farmer and Boatbuilder.
We have been to the island, known as Assacorkin (or George's Island) and have seen the original homestead, still standing, owned and restored by the Assacorkin Island Duck Hunting Club.
