Look through your attics and closets! Did you know that valuable genealogical material may be rotting away in your closets, attics or garages. You may have packed up a beloved relatives belongings when they passed away and have not gone through it since then. If you are reading this, now is the time to go through these valuables.

It’s amazing what gets ruined or thrown away every day that may be evidence to your existence or a relatives’ existence on this earth. Most people think these things may not be valuable to anyone. The things you may think is trash could be gold nuggets waiting to be discovered to those researching our family.

If you are related to me in some way or think you may be please contact me before you throw anything out that is from a deceased family member that you may think is trash or not valuable to anyone. More than likely it is a valuable document or picture that someone would love to have and share with the others.

    My Hinsons were in North Carolina . . .my great-grandmother was born we think in 1847 in N.C.
    Her name was Sarah E. Hinson . . .she married Wilson M. Hudson who was in the Confederate Army. I have no other information . . .except the names of some of their children:
    They were John McLeod Hudson, Mack Hudson, Rufus Hudson (I think), James Hudson, Caroline/Carolina “Carrie” Hudson and Nancy Jane Hudson. My grandmother was Carrie Hudson who married George Benjamin Wilson. Sarah and Wilson Hudson are buried at Philadelphia Presbyterian Church in Mint Hill, NC . . .but there are no grave markers.
    I would be grateful any information you may offer.
