    Notes 
    • Rebecca was Native American.

      She was blinded at some point in her life.  One account says that while cleaning out her spices, she tossed the old ones into the fire place and they sparked back into her face, causing the injury.  Another says that she was making lye and was blinded in the process.

      See the Notes for husband George Faler. They were married on 20 Mar 1883 and divorced sometime before 1896. Both George Faler and Rebecca Hudson were blind.
