About David Hudson
David Hudson was an American businessman noted for founding Hudson Township, now Hudson, Ohio. Hudson was born in Branford, Connecticut, and lived there until the age of four. His family then moved to Goshen, Connecticut, where he lived for many years, owned a farm, married Anna Norton in 1783, and raised the oldest seven of their nine children. In 1789, Hudson joined a group to purchase a parcel of land in the Connecticut Western Reserve. The following year, he left Goshen to survey the parcel and settle it as Hudson Township. Hudson traveled through the state of New York, west along Lake Erie and south along the Cuyahoga River to reach his land.
