John Judd in 1879
John was quite the world traveler. According to information in "Descendants of John & Matilda Judd," written by Lysle Jacobs in 1978 - John Judd, born 1809, was a cooper in Hartford, Connecticut. "In that capacity he shipped aboard an outward-bound whaler, and for three years followed the sea, visiting the Portuguese island of St. Helena, doubled Cape Good Hope, & fished in the Straits of Mozambique and Madagascar, visited the coast of Africa, and was twice shipwrecked, barely escaping a watery grave."
