I am often given information on families from USA researching the Hudgell name or in most instances the variation is Hudgel and obviously researchers want information from here in the UK which is grand.

What we would like to find is if and when someone took the name across to the US.

We do know that the Hudswell/Hudgwell name went across to the Caribbean circa 1640 with John Hudgwell you can read more about it at

So if you do have any connections with the Hudgwells from the Caribbean or the Hudgel's from the USA please do get in touch with us.
