Eva Lou Hudson^[1]

1929 - 2004  (74 years)

• Name	Eva Lou Hudson
  Birth	8 Oct 1929	Prescott, Nevada, Arkansas, United States   [2, 3]
  	While her tombstone says she was born in 1930, the fact that she is in the census in 1930 means it must have been in 1929 (as calculated by the census). Additionally, a Social Security claim was made that suggested her birth date was 8 Oct 1927, which is also wrong. That claim put Prescott in Hempstead County, too.

• Notes

  The Social Security claim made for Eva Lou Hudson records that she could have been also known as Eva Lou Denton, Eva Lou Moore, and Eva Loucinda Bennett. It has her birth date off by 2 years and puts her birth place in the wrong county. It also lists her mother as Eva B Kingwell instead of Kimball.
