Just a follow up to this story; the building is now "The Next Step Learning Center". It is a childcare/daycare. They are even using some adjacent property and made it a play area.

Seth Hudson (born Pollys Branch 1793, my ancestor) bought or received the land from John Campbell in 1817, and probably lived there because he was in Baltimore Hundred 1820 census. In 1830 Seth's family was in Dagsboro Hundred, but apparently there is no record that he sold the property, according to Marjorie. The only other Hudson I know of in that area was John Hudson who married Charlotte Bunting (Ken's relative) about 1836, but we haven't connected this John yet.

It is curious that in 1801 they are listed without acreage since they should have inherited at Hezekiah's death by 1787. The first David Hudson to own part of Dennis Security sold his 50 acres to brother Benjamin in 1813. There is some evidence that he could have relocated in Dagsboro Hundred for a while. John A sold his part of Dennis Security in 1817 to a John Cammell (Campbell). Benjamin held 100 acres of Dennis Security until his death in 1840. This is when sons Levin & David (the 2nd one) inherited 50 acres each. Levin sold his part of Dennis Security in 1848 and David in 1858.

Beth,

Don’t know if it will help but in the Hudson files is a list of John Hudsons from the Baltimore Hundred Tax Assessments that I got at the Nabb Center. I also included Seth Hudson for years 1816 & 1822.

All the streams in or near Selbyville of a size likely to be noted on a deed are named in USGA topographhical maps except one. This flows into Bunting Branch about 200' north of Lighthouse Rd near Buntings Mill Ct and wanders NE to a point where it crosses under Roxana Rd about 1500' east of Phillip C Showell Elementary close to Ronzetti Dr. Someone who has grown up in the area probably knows the local name for it. It may be what was/is Pig Pen Branch.

A great deal of this has been done in my lifetime. They can be recognized if water runs in them year round. The trick is to identify where ditches empty into larger named streams and trace them back.
