This Week On My Family History Calendar-Remembering My Paternal Grandmother on her 105th Birthday!





May 5~
   My paternal grandmother, Mary (Baker) Hudson (1920-2010), was born 105 years ago in Columbia, Richland, South Carolina. Mary was raised by her maternal grandparents and learned later in life that she was the biological daughter of Jubal Ransom Early (1888-1964) and Emma Ruth (Baker) Early (1901-1993). She never legally used the surname Early.  

Happy Birthday, Mimi! You are missed. 


Mary (Baker) Hudson
1920-2010
