The late Christopher Mills operated a river steamer service between San Francisco, Sacramento and Marysville and shortly after the family arrived in San Francisco they moved to Marysville. later coming to St Helena and residing at the old family home on the banks of Sulphur Creek, the present home of Christopher Mills.
Mrs Hudson was a sister of Mrs Lela Cook; Mrs Frances Nosler; and Christopher Mills
also of the late Mrs Frances York and Mrs Ella G Anderson, all of whom have spent most of their days in St Helena.
Mrs Hudson was one of the few remaining pioneers and early settlers coming to Napa valley and spending her lifetime in St Helena. She was one of the oldest members of the Presbyterian Church in St Helena and a life long friend of Rev James Mitchell , her devoted pastor.
Mrs Hudson was a lover of her home and family and spent a great portion of her time in her garden and among her flowers.

Mercier & Parmalee. Rev Walter C Subke officiating. There was a large attendance of sorrowing relatives and friends, the latter including many old settlers. The floral tributes were many and very beautiful. Among the set pieces was one from the Southern Pacific Co.
