A gas station stands on the site of Mr. Hudson's cabin, and we were unable to
locate a plaque. A woman who works in the station told us she had never heard
of a plaque on the property, but that the gas station had been rebuilt not long ago.
She speculated that perhaps the plaque had been accidentally buried by the construction
crew.
According to the California Office of Historical Preservation
(OHP Website), the
plaque reads:
David Hudson was one of the early pioneers who helped develop the upper portion of
Napa Valley by purchasing land, clearing it, and planting crops and building homes.
Hudson built his cabin in October 1845.
