Kanawha County Connections Introduction

"Article I, Section 2, of the Constitution requires an "Enumeration" of the population of the United States every ten years. The first census began on the first Monday in August, 1790, barely a year after the Inauguration of President Washington. There have been twenty-one censuses since the first, the most recent one taken on April 1, 2000." Info from the University of Virginia Library

To date, 1/31/2003, have found no census or tax records for Joseph or Mary Ann in Athens County, Ohio. There in 1820, Joseph and Mary Ann's son Thomas is listed with two females above the age of 45 indicating that one could be his mother. No other related families in Athens County in either 1820 or 1830 show a male or female old enough to be Joseph or Mary Ann.

To view individual descending KC(W)V records for certain children of Joseph HUDNAL, Jr. and Mary Ann TAYLOR, "Click" next to the individuals name to see information separately rather than collectively as it appears on this page. Please note that uncertain HUDNALL surname spellings as well as all children’s names shown 1810-1840 are probable and speculative at best, based on post 1840 census info from Kanawha County, (W)V.

Individuals ages on census records are erratic and inconsistent making a study of these records extremely challenging. The following information was collected in part to help identify the parents of my great, great grandfather Thomas HUDNALL. To date, his parents are still a mystery. Some Hudnall researchers have suggested that his parents are William and Rosanna (COCKRELL) HUDNALL "Click"or Benjamin and Nancy (RILEY) HUDNALL "Click" while another has said his parents are probably Anderson and Janette (LATHEY) HUDNALL. Because Thomas claimed to be born in Ohio on the 1880 Kanawha County census and again when he married his second wife in 1887, Thompson [s/o Thomas and Mary Ann (STRICKLIN or STRICKLER) HUDNALL "Click"] and Sabrina (GRINSTEAD) HUDNALL should also be considered and "are the most likely candidates" in this researcher’s eyes. All information is from Kanawha County, (West) Virgina except as noted by heading in "GREEN", personal annotations and fellow researchers additions/changes in "RED"
