Extract
John Wesley Judd was born at Portsmouth February 18th, 1840. His father belonged to a branch of an old Kentish family that had been settled for several generations in the Isle of Wight. His mother was the daughter of a Scotchman who had “come South” from the ancient kingdom of Fife. The Christian name given to the subject of this sketch was the result of an attempt on the part of his parents to find a compromise between the two national religions in which they had been respectively brought up.
