Part of Hudson's Heritage
Thanks to a very generous donation and a little divine intervention the Hudson Cemetery got a facelift. We have a brand new, high quality, fence for our visitors and loved ones complete with two brand new gates and a sleek black color. Many thanks to those in our organization and in the community who had a part in making this happen!
Our friends at Hudson Water Works have joined in our efforts to maintain the Hudson Cemetery~ Step One: Clean out the cabbage palms along Hudson Ave and Fivay Rd. Check.
Great job Water Works, you are a true example of community. God Bless You for everything you are doing for the Hudson Cemetery Preservation Assoc., and the families.
BEFORE AND AFTER
Welcome to the HUDSON CEMETERY PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION WEBSITE!
Who we are:
The Hudson Cemetery Preservation Association is a 25 member non profit organization formed to encourage and promote a mutual interest in the ongoing maintenance, preservation, and restoration of the historic Hudson Cemetery, located in Hudson, Pasco County, Florida (corner of US 19 & Hudson Ave, Hudson, FL 34667)
History:
This burial ground was established by the family of Isaac W and Amanda Hudson who settled the Hudson community, originally known as Hudson’s Landing. The first burial was that of their daughter Melissa in 1878. This rugged pioneer family came to Florida from Alabama and lived in Madison and Chipco before moving to the Gulf Coast area seeking a healthier climate.
What we do:
Our incorporation in 2010 is a continuance of a community-based organization with the goal of preserving the Hudson Cemetery and those that have been laid to rest there. They are our families, many veterans and pioneers who dedicated their lives to making our community a better place. We are committed to preserving the cemetery for this, and future, generations. Our goal is to bring back the historical relevance of the cemetery, maintain it’s grounds and headstones with the respect they deserve, and to bring about community awareness so the effort can be continued for generations to come.
Grab your rakes and gloves and meet us at the Hudson Cemetery on Saturday, May 25th, 2017. We’ll join with the community and spruce up the cemetery for a Memorial Day event.
We’ll meet at 10am sharp for a productive day. We will be cleaning out the palm trees along Hudson Ave, hang new signs, mulch under the newly painted sign, and plant some flowers.
Hope to see you there!
