Edmund HUDSON was born probably about 1780s or 1790s in north Co. Kerry. He married Mary GALLIVAN.

Because Edmund's eldest child (or the eldest child from the list we have below) was born in Bunagara (also spelled Bunagarha), Listowel, Co. Kerry, where my Hudson family had connections, I suspect Edmund and his family are realted to me, hence their inclusion in my family trees. Sometime after the birth of their eldest child, the family moved to Warren (which I believe to be in the townland of Ballyeagh), Ballybunion, Co. Kerry.

Mary GALLIVAN was born probably about 1790s or 1810s in probably north Co. Kerry. She married Edmund HUDSON.

Michael, born in 1843
Richard, 1844 (who probably married Johanna Stack)
