     He was a mentioned with Washington Banks Hudson and Louisa Marksberry; per Clayton [1880:483]: "Washington B. Hudson is descended from English ancestry who came to this country at a very early day and settled in Virginia, where two of them remained, while one removed to New York and settled on the Hudson River.
     Of the two remaining in Virginia, from one, Reuben [sic], is descended the subject of this sketch.
     Joshua Hudson, grandfather of Washington, lived in Amherst Co., Va., and was a wealthy and influential farmer, the owner of much land and many slaves, as was killed by the falling of a tree. He was a soldier in the war of 1812.
     Aratia Hudson was his only son , who at the age of twenty-one married a Miss Banks, of Garrard co., Ky. Their children were Joshua, James, Washington B., Dr. Lynn B., Nancy, Isaiah B., Reuben, Melvina, Commodore Perry, and Mary Louisa.
     Washington B. Hudson was born July 3, 1813, in Garrard co., Ky., on sugar Creek. His boyhood and early manhood were spent at home. Aug. 26, 1833, he was married to Miss Louisa Marksbury, youngest daughter of Isaac Marksbury, a prominent man in his day. He was magistrate of the court for more than twenty years, a man noted for his many good qualities of head and heart, and an active and efficient member of the Christian Church.
     The children of W. B. and L. M. Hudson have been William D., Aratia, Isaac M. James, Mollie Lynn, Clayton A., Allie and Thomas J.
     Washington B. Hudson after his marriage engaged in farming on his own account. In 1848 he came to Davidson Co., Tenn., and settled on the farm he now occupies, purchasing it from Dr. James Overton. His original purchase was five hundred and fifty-four acres, to which, however, he added from time to until his farm comprised eight hundred acres of excellent land, three hundred acres of which he still retains, the rest having been apportioned to his children on their marriage.
     Mr. and Mrs. Hudson are members of the Christian Church, a pretty edifice, of which stands at the food of the lane leading to their house, Mr. Hudson bearing the principal part of the cost of its erection."⁵

This is probably not the same Isaiah HUDSON. Though Isaiah was in Johnson Co., TX for the 1860 census, he was still in TN for the 1850 census. The birhplaces of his children in the 1860 census show that he moved to TX 1855-1857, between the birth of Andrew (born in TN) and Christopher (born in TX).

Washington Banks Hudson died on 17 December 1896 at Neely's Bend, Davidson Co., Tennessee, USA, at age 83.¹
Washington Banks Hudson was buried after 17 December 1896 at Spring Hill Cemetery, Nashville, Davidson Co., Tennessee, USA; from FindAGrave.com:
     Birth:      Jul. 3, 1813, Garrard County, Kentucky, USA
     Death:      Dec. 17, 1896, Davidson County, Tennessee, USA
     Washington B. Hudson was born in Garrard County, Ky., on July 3, 1813; and died in Neely's Bend, Davidson county, Tenn., on Dec. 17, 1896, aged eighty-three years, five months, and fourteen days. He married at quite a youthful age Miss Louisa Marksberry, with whom he lived almost sixty years. His wife died about three years ago. Nine children, seven sons and two daughters, were born to them, all of whom grew to maturity. All of these, except the second son (Aratia), are still living. He died about eighteen years ago, a true and faithful servant of the Master. Brother and Sister Hudson began their married life in very humble, straitened circumstances; but, both being very industrious and economical, they soon began to prosper in worldly affairs. Brother Hudson soon became a leading trader and farmer in his section of Kentucky; he likewise took quite an active part in the political affairs of the country. About the year 1848 he moved to Tennessee, and settled in Neely's Bend, in Davidson County. This continued to be his home until his death, though his winters, for the past fourteen years, were spent in Florida. In Tennessee Brother Hudson soon took position as a leading citizen of the community, and was widely known as one of the first farmers and stock-growers of his adopted State. In early life, in Kentucky, Brother Hudson had the privilege of hearing the ancient gospel, as proclaimed by the Creaths, Smiths, Kendrick, John T. Johnson, and others. He knew the right way, and was ready to contend for it from his earliest manhood; but the busy activities of life and participation in the affairs of the country left him little time to give personal attention to the great matter of life. Even after his removal to Tennessee, it was many years before he brought himself to put on Christ in baptism. This delay and the results of the rough associations of earlier days made it more difficult for him to cut himself loose from the world and its ways. He could not give up the idea that great benefit was to come to man through human legislation. All his sympathies were with the toiling masses, and his desire was for the enactment of laws for them. Brother Hudson was a man of positive convictions on every subject to which he directed his attention. I have never known any man more ready on every occasion to declare his confidence in the great scheme of redemption offered to man in the word of God. No array of learning or assumption of clerical pomp could deter him in any and every sort of assembly from declaring boldly the plan of salvation taught in the New Testament. Not only was he ready to talk for Christ and his simple appointments, but he was ready with his means to help forward and strengthen the good cause. Whatever may have been the deficiencies in the entire make-up of his religious life, cowardice and a lack of faith in God's word were not of them. Against the innovations that have been of late years striving to enter into the church he was unalterably fixed, and with them he was for no compromise. His body rests in Spring Hill Cemetery, beside that of his lifelong companion, to await the summons of that Judge who knows all our hearts, and who will in all things do that which is infallibly right.

     Reference: per Clayton [1880:483]: "Washington B. Hudson is descended from English ancestry who came to this country at a very early day and settled in Virginia, where two of them remained, while one removed to New York and settled on the Hudson River.
     Of the two remaining in Virginia, from one, Reuben [sic], is descended the subject of this sketch.
     Joshua Hudson, grandfather of Washington, lived in Amherst Co., Va., and was a wealthy and influential farmer, the owner of much land and many slaves, as was killed by the falling of a tree. He was a soldier in the war of 1812.
     Aratia Hudson was his only son , who at the age of twenty-one married a Miss Banks, of Garrard co., Ky. Their children were Joshua, James, Washington B., Dr. Lynn B., Nancy, Isaiah B., Reuben, Melvina, Commodore Perry, and Mary Louisa.
     Washington B. Hudson was born July 3, 1813, in Garrard co., Ky., on sugar Creek. His boyhood and early manhood were spent at home. Aug. 26, 1833, he was married to Miss Louisa Marksbury, youngest daughter of Isaac Marksbury, a prominent man in his day. He was magistrate of the court for more than twenty years, a man noted for his many good qualities of head and heart, and an active and efficient member of the Christian Church.
     The children of W. B. and L. M. Hudson have been William D., Aratia, Isaac M. James, Mollie Lynn, Clayton A., Allie and Thomas J.
     Washington B. Hudson after his marriage engaged in farming on his own account. In 1848 he came to Davidson Co., Tenn., and settled on the farm he now occupies, purchasing it from Dr. James Overton. His original purchase was five hundred and fifty-four acres, to which, however, he added from time to until his farm comprised eight hundred acres of excellent land, three hundred acres of which he still retains, the rest having been apportioned to his children on their marriage.
     Mr. and Mrs. Hudson are members of the Christian Church, a pretty edifice, of which stands at the food of the lane leading to their house, Mr. Hudson bearing the principal part of the cost of its erection."⁶

     Mrs. Louisa Hudson, wife of Wash. B.

She was born in this county, Garrard, Nov. 10, 1817, therefore was 77 years, 4 months, and 25 days old at the time of her death. She was the daughter of Isaac Marksberry, who was one of the first members that constituted the Christian church at this place. He was respected and always an humble servant of God. She was the last of a family of six brothers and four sisters, who preceded her to the heavenly world. She was the sister of Samuel and Rudolph Marksberry, Mrs. Barbara and Susan Salter, who were esteemed and favorably known in this community. She confessed faith in Jesus while quite young, under the powerful preaching of Elder Carroll Kendrick, and united with the Antioch Christian church, and was a faithful and conscientious Christian all her life. She was gentle and retiring in her nature, strong in her attachments, and held on to friends with a firm and loving grasp. As a wife and mother she was unselfish, self-sacrificing, loving and faithful. She lived well the days allotted to her, and now that she has left us we can truly say, "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord," or "Well done; enter into the joys of thy Lord.

     He was a mentioned with Washington Banks Hudson and Louisa Marksberry; per Clayton [1880:483]: "Washington B. Hudson is descended from English ancestry who came to this country at a very early day and settled in Virginia, where two of them remained, while one removed to New York and settled on the Hudson River.
     Of the two remaining in Virginia, from one, Reuben [sic], is descended the subject of this sketch.
     Joshua Hudson, grandfather of Washington, lived in Amherst Co., Va., and was a wealthy and influential farmer, the owner of much land and many slaves, as was killed by the falling of a tree. He was a soldier in the war of 1812.
     Aratia Hudson was his only son , who at the age of twenty-one married a Miss Banks, of Garrard co., Ky. Their children were Joshua, James, Washington B., Dr. Lynn B., Nancy, Isaiah B., Reuben, Melvina, Commodore Perry, and Mary Louisa.
     Washington B. Hudson was born July 3, 1813, in Garrard co., Ky., on sugar Creek. His boyhood and early manhood were spent at home. Aug. 26, 1833, he was married to Miss Louisa Marksbury, youngest daughter of Isaac Marksbury, a prominent man in his day. He was magistrate of the court for more than twenty years, a man noted for his many good qualities of head and heart, and an active and efficient member of the Christian Church.
     The children of W. B. and L. M. Hudson have been William D., Aratia, Isaac M. James, Mollie Lynn, Clayton A., Allie and Thomas J.
     Washington B. Hudson after his marriage engaged in farming on his own account. In 1848 he came to Davidson Co., Tenn., and settled on the farm he now occupies, purchasing it from Dr. James Overton. His original purchase was five hundred and fifty-four acres, to which, however, he added from time to until his farm comprised eight hundred acres of excellent land, three hundred acres of which he still retains, the rest having been apportioned to his children on their marriage.
     Mr. and Mrs. Hudson are members of the Christian Church, a pretty edifice, of which stands at the food of the lane leading to their house, Mr. Hudson bearing the principal part of the cost of its erection."⁷ Lynn Banks Hudson M. D. was Surgeon at Jeffersontown, Jefferson Co., Kentucky, USA.⁴

Lynn Banks Hudson M.

Both Isaiah (b1821) and Reuben (b1822) would fit this, but one seems to be missing. James H., Washington, and Malvina were married by 1840. There is one unidentified female age 10-14 (i.e., b. 1826-30). There is an Isaac Marksberry several lines later who may have been related to Louisa Marksberry, wife of Washington Banks (their son), but this Isaac is to young to be Louisa's father (also named Isaac).]

     Benjamin Schooler was born on 17 April 1787 at Spotsylvania Co., Virginia, USA.¹ He married Margaret Royston, daughter of William Royston and Jamima St. Clair, before 1815
; per FindAGrave their first child, Salina, was born in 1815.³
Benjamin Schooler died on 26 July 1863 at Garrard Co., Kentucky, USA, at age 76.¹
Benjamin Schooler was buried after 26 July 1863 at Kennedy Cemetery, Lancaster, Garrard Co., Kentucky, USA; from FindAGrave.com:
     Birth:      Apr. 17, 1787, Spotsylvania County, Virginia, USA
     Death:      Jul. 26, 1863, Garrard County, Kentucky, USA
     Son of John Schooler and Nancy Catherine Hawkins. Benjamin Schooler was born in Spotsylvania County, Virginia and traveled with his family as a boy to Kentucky. Benjamin called his plantation Bowling Green. It was located along the Fall Lick Road southeast of Lancaster, Ky.
     The plantation had earlier been owned by Thomas Kennedy, Jr. and his mother Edna Withers Kennedy by way of her step-father John Jones. Both are buried on the plantation grounds, along with Benjamin, his wife Margaret and two of their adult children who died before Benjamin: William and Margaret.
     Cattle, hemp, and tobacco were among the early agricultural products of the Bowling Green plantation. These were likely shipped on the Kentucky River by flatboat to downstream markets. The Schoolers were quite well off, but not the wealthiest farmers in the area. The 1860 census lists their real estate value at $16,500 and personal property at $10,575.
     The success of the Schooler plantation was dependent on slave labor. On July 23, 1860 in Garrard County, Benjamin Schooler is listed as owner of 16 slaves, from age 1 to ninety. Nine are female, and eight are listed as mulatto.
     On the 21st day of May 1860 Benjamin Schooler writes his will and immediately adds a codicil the same day that the slaves “I gave my beloved wife, after her death I want sold to the highest bidder amongst my five children that is now living in Kentucky and the money equally divided among my children.” He also clarified that, for the land he has given in his will, “I don’t want any of the slaves taken off the place until the crop is secured.” Seventeen slaves are listed by name in Benjamin’s will and very specific instructions are given.
     On May 16, 1861 a neutrality resolution is adopted by Kentucky’s Unionist-dominated legislature. On that very day Benjamin makes one last codicil to his will , this time instructing that the slaves John, George, Caroline, and her three children Margaret, Eliza, and Elizabeth are to be "sold by my executors and constitute a portion of my estate and this and the residence of my estate is to be so distributed among my children and grand children." On September 1862 President Lincoln issues the Emancipation Proclamation abolishing slavery as of January 1, 1863 within states that had seceded from the United States. Thus, it does not apply to Kentucky. Benjamin dies that year.
     Finally, on January 31, 1865 Congress passes the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution, abolishing slavery throughout the United States (although without ratification by Kentucky).
     At last, the Schooler slaves (now seventeen in number) were freed. While all of the slaves are named in his will, Benjamin specifies that three should not have a value placed on them: David, his faithful servant; Fanny; and Fanny’s mother, the old and infirm Charlotte. The others are: Miriam, Soloman, Mary, Miles, Jim, Alex, Olee, Ersa, John, George, Caroline, Margaret, Martha, and Elizabeth.
     The 1870 census shows a Martha Schooler, mulatto, age 40, living with 59-year-old Miles Schooler and 9 year old Fannie, three year old Susan, and one year old John in Lancaster, Kentucky, the closest city to the plantation. Miles was listed as being unable to read or write; Martha and Fannie apparently could read but not write. Miles’ occupation was shown as gardener; he had real estate valued at $300. Could these have been emancipated slaves from the plantation who retained the name of their former master? Could Martha be a daughter of Benjamin Schooler?

     GAV-5. He was a mentioned with William Mills and Sophia P. Banks;
See Unknown [1907:374-5] for more details on this MILLS family and the children of William and Sophia (BANKS) MILLS. Also see article from the "Interior Journal", Stanford, KY Jan. 2, 1953.

The following was composed from information found online at Google Books in a publication entitled "A Twentieth century history of southwest Texas, Volume 2". By Lewis Publishing Company. Pages 374-376. See note at end of quotation.
     "William Mills (grandfather to Green W. Mills - the subject of a prior paragraph) was born in North Carolina but moved to Kentucky, and became a pioneer of Pulaski County. He was a hatter by trade for a number of years, moved to Missouri in 1841, near Palmyra, and lived there for four years until he moved to Jackson County, Texas in 1845, where he died the following year. He married Sophia P. Banks, daughter of distiguished Revolutionary War soldier, Lynn Banks.
     "Lynn Banks commanded a regiment as it's colonel, at the Battle of Bunker Hill, June 17, 1775. He was then promoted to Brigadier General and served under General George Washington. He moved with his family from Virginia to Kentucky, and became a pioneer settler of Lancaster. He died in September 1799.
     "One of Lynn's sons, William Banks, served as a major in the War of 1812. Edward Mills, a brother of William Mills, also served in the War of 1812 and was killed in the Battle of New Orleans, January 8, 1815.
     "William Mills and Sophia (Banks) Mills raised a large family. Their children are named as: Henry P., James L., Edward, William G., Richmond, Samuel F., Keziah, Letitia and Elizabeth. The publication then recounts information about the six sons of William and Sophia, and grandson Green W. Mills.
     "Henry P. Mills, the oldest son, went to Texas in March 1836, commanding a group of eighty Kentucky soldiers. The group met up with Fannin at Goliad, Texas, where he and his troup were surrounded by Mexican soldiers, narrowly escaping death, but were taken prisoner and forced to witness the massacre of Fannin and his men. Subsequently, Henry P. Mills served in the Texas army, rose to the rank of major, and died in service, in 1838. His heirs (names not mentioned) were given two tracts of land in Wharton and Jackson counties.
     "James L. Mills, who was present with brother Henry at the Fannin massacre, is listed in 1841 as a member of Captain Henry E. McCulloch's company, was in the engagement at Plum Creek, afterwords joining the Mier expedition. He was among those captured and taken to Mexico, escaped and was re-captured, only to be returned to Mexico, where he worked for two years on a chain gang at Castle Perote. He was then "exchanged" and returned to Texas, where he settled on a farm in Gonzales County.
     "Edward Mills came to Texas in 1838 and spent most of his life in Jackson County.
     "William G. Mills was a life-long resident of Kentucky and worked in Lebanon for forty years in the livery business.
     "Richmond Mills lived all of his life in Pulaski County, Kentucky.
     "Samuel F. Mills was raised in Kentucky. At the age of 19 he enlisted in Company H, 4th Kentucky Infantry for the Mexican War. He took part in numerous engagements, including the Battle of Cerro Gordo, and spent ten months on garrison duty in Mexico City, Mexico. After the war ended, he returned to the old Kentucky home, residing there until 1872. In that year he moved to Caldwell County, Texas, spending the remainder of his life in that county, till he died in August 1896. He was married to Mary S. Woodcock, born in Pulaski County, Kentucky, and daughter of Stephen Woodcock and Sally Zachary. Mary died in 1873. Samuel and Mary's children are: William - died in infancy, David - died at age 19, Green W., Keziah S., Richmond R., Nannie - died at age 9, Robert B. - died at age 27, and Sally G.
     "Green W. Mills (subject of the article) and son of Samuel F. Mills and Mary S. Woodcock, was the third-oldest child, and went to Texas as a young man, with his family. At age 18 he started work as a drover, driving cattle for seven years, from Kansas to Nebraska. He afterward engaged in farming for twenty years. In 1894 he was elected cotton weigher, and then elected justice of the peace for Precinct 1 Lockhart. In 1882 he married Mary J. Whittenberg, born in Bell County, Texas, daughter of Jacob W. Whittenberg and Roselle Miller. This publication lists one child for the couple: Roger Q. Mills.
     ***Note: Please note that the military information found in this publication has not yet been substantiated, so there is a definite possibility that some of it is incorrect. (In particular, I have not seen any historical references to Lynn Banks serving as a Brigadier General.) The Edward Mills mentioned above, that was killed in the Battle of New Orleans, was actually half-brother to William Mills, according to author Jane Pritchett Banks (references found on pages 19 and 23 of her book, The Banks Family). According to the author, her grandmother, who was Elizabeth (Mills) Banks, was very much attached to her half-brother, who she always referred to as "Little Eddie Mills". Eddie was the son of Edward Mills and his second wife, Jennie (maiden name unknown). Eddie is stated to have been last seen as he went into the Battle of New Orleans, which of course does coincide with the above info on him. As to the date of death given here for Lynn Banks, we know this is incorrect, as he signed his will in December of 1799.^8,9,10

Linn/Lynn Stanton Banks began military service between 1759 and 1760 at French and Indian War, Virginia, USA,      From DAR App #303452: "Linn (Banks) was a soldier in the French and Indian Wars in 1759 and Sargeant in 1760 under Co. Wm Byrd, as he testified in 1780 (Amhers O. B. 1773-1782, p. 397.)⁴"

There seems to be some confusion as to the name of the wife of this Gerard BANKS. "Early Colonial Settlers..." shows this Gerrard (var. sp.) as the sone of Adam and Anne (GERARD) BANKS. However, this website shows his wife to have been Elizabeth LNU. and only one wife. Genealogies of VA Families [1982:I:235] also shows that Adam and Anne (GERARD) BANKS had a son named Gerard, but states that "He married Frances, duaghter of Sara Strother," citing her 1774 will. However, this is followed by a somewhat confusing statement:
This last seems to imply that the Girard who m. Frances BRUCE was the father of the Girard who m. Sarah STROTHER.
"Early Colonial Settlers..." shows the following descent:
Adam BANKS m. Anne GERARD, and
their son Gerard BANKS (1) m. Elizabeth LNU, and
their son Gerard BANKS (2) m. Anne STANTON. and they had two sons named Gerard:
their son Gerard BANKS (3) m. Frances BRUCE. while their son Gerard BANKS (4) m. Frances PANNELL.
Gerard BANKS (3) who m. Frances BRUCE so had a son Gerard BANKS (5), with no marriage shown.^11,12,13,14
