Orange county TX - Hudson Cemetery Submitted by: Elaine Stone Copyright.

Transcribed by: Elaine Stone & Melba Hudson Sept.30, 2003 Years ago, a man was found dead along side State Highway 87, north of Orange, (now Old Highway 87). He was buried beside the road on a small knoll. George Hudson later approached the owner of the property, Morgan Lindsey Lumber Company, asking them to donate the surrounding acre of land to create a local cemetery, which they did. Thus the Hudson Cemetery came into being. Directions to the cemetery from Orange, Texas going north. From I10 go out Hwy 87 north 7.3 miles to Abe's Road. Turn right on Abe's and follow until it ends at Old Hwy 87 (9/10 of a mile), there you will see Hudson Cemetery. ********************************************************************** ******** 1.
