Williams-Hudson Family

How it all began...

On the second Sunday in May “Mother’s Day” of the year 1949, Aunt Lizzie, also known as “Aunt Baby” attended service at Friendship Baptist Church in Hamilton, GA. Aunt Baby was the youngest child of Isaac and Georgiann. After service, as Aunt Baby walked down the steps and spotted Gradie’s widow, Lillie rushed down the steps to greet her with a huge hug. Gradie was Aunt Baby’s older brother who had passed away a few years earlier.

“Oh Sis Lillie, I’m so glad to see you!” said Aunt Baby with her eyes filled with tears. Lillie said, “I never see any of you since Gradie has gone and none of the family comes to see me,” with a tear trickling down her cheek. Aunt Baby said, “Sis Lillie, I tell you what we are going to do. We are going to visit you once a year just to let you know that you are not forgotten and that you are still a part of the family.”
