Looking for information on the death of Theophilas Hudgins which occurred on or about 26 October 1883 in Brazoria County TX. Wondering if local newpaper extant to that era exists which may contain obituary?? Any record of his death would be appreciated. He was born about 1831 in Gates County NC. He enlisted in Waul's Texas Legion (Willis' Cavalry Bat.) from Fort Bend County TX and served throughout the Civil War. After the war, he married (12 Feb 1868) Orelle Ann Nickelson (b. 1846; d. 1929) who was the widow of another Brazoria County Civil War veteran, George Tennelle Davis. Theophilus Hudgins was known as "Theo" and erroneously referred to as "Theodore" in the 1860 Brazoria County census, so it is possible that these names may be associated with him on death record/obituary. Thank you!
