3021 John W. Hudson appears to be in the household of James Hudson, who has a son named Wesley. My supposition is that this may be a cousin, but we need to establish a family to connect Wesley to the father of James.

Additionally, there is a 14 year-old Martha Morris, who might also be related. 
Hudson, John Wesley (I3754)

3035 Joseph A. Boyle and Catherine Boyle are sponsors. Boyle, Michael F. (I1108)
 
3036 Joseph and his parents may legitimately be missed in the 1930 census. In Weymouth, ED 11-139, the enumerations completely omits 246 Washington St. where the family lived for many years before and after. Boyle, Joseph Francis (I1105)
 
3037 Joseph apparently lived in Giles County, Tennessee since he returned a report on the accounts of Joanna Smith, his ward, in that county, Giles County Court Minutes, 1830-1839, p. 128.

Even though Joseph supposedly did not die until 1873 or later, he doesn't appear in the 1870 census.

3040 Joseph Gault sold land to Charles Hames for five pounds on 10 Feb 1797. This is nearly the same time that Charles Senr sold land to Charles Jr.

Hypothesis: This land was sold to Charles Jr by his father-in-law. This would mean that Martha was a Gault. Charles Senr and Joseph Gault set up the new couple in a farm of their own.

for diverse good causes and considerations him there unto moving but more especially for and in consideration of the sum of five pounds current money of South Carolina to him in hand well and truly paid ... a certain plantation or tract of land situate lying and being on the south side of Pacolato River it being in Union County State of South Carolina and hath such courses form and marks as a plat hereunto represented viz. beginning at the river on a white oak running thence So b W 9 to a stake corner thence So 32 W 23 to a pine cornerand thence N 5 W to Portmans Creek to a mayple S..... then as thence runs to the river and then as the river runs to the beginning corner the said hereby granted lands containing sixty acres more or less.

This appears that it might adjoin the land purchased from Charles Senr. 
Hames, Charles Jr. (I3233)

During the American Revolution, Joseph served in the Wilmington District Militia. After the Revolution, Joseph migrated west over the mountains into what later became the state of Tennessee. However, becoming dissatisfied with the mountainous terrain, he returned to North Carolina. In 1800, he again moved to Tennessee with his eight grown sons and their families, in quest of large landed estates. Other members of the family followed."

Family: Wady Tommy Tennyson / Ruth Switzer (F3189)
 
3047 Julia and Nancy A. were twins. Harris, Julia (I3354)
 
3048 Julia died on Wed, 25 Nov 1992, in Prescott. She had been sick for several weeks. Her service was conducted on Friday, 27 Nov 1992. She was a fine lady and will be sorely missed. Anytime you would go to see her in the nursing home, she would be made up and well dressed. She was a joy to all who knew her. Woodul, Julia (I6642)
 
3049 Julia's family came to Alabama from North Carolina around 1835. Megginson, Julia Elizabeth King (I4604)
 
3050 Juliar is probably really Julia. By 1860, she does not appear in the census, but new daughters appear who was born in 1853 and 1855. My suspicion is that Juliar probably died after 1855 and before 1860. Gann, Julia Ann (I6977)
