Judge, Hugh, approximately 1750-1834

Hugh Judge was a Quaker minister. Judge was born about 1750 to Hugh and Margaret Judge, Irish Catholic immigrants to British North America. His father died when Judge was quite young, and Hugh grew up in Philadelphia under the care of his mother, and was placed out as an apprentice. Judge started attending meetings of the Society of Friends as a young man. Upon finishing his apprenticeship, he moved to Springfield and learned the milling trade from Samuel Levis for a year, then worked at a mill on the Wissahickon creek for a year. He first appeared in the ministry during this period, during the 11th month of 1772, at a meeting at 2nd Street in Philadelphia.

In 1773 Judge moved to Pikeland in Chester County, Pa., to work as a miller for William Lightfood, brother-in-law of well-known minister Susanna Lightfoot. The same year he joined Uwchlan Monthly Meeting. In 1776 he married Susanna Hatton, daughter of Susanna Lightfoot, and went to work on the farm of Thomas Lightfoot, his new wife's step-father. He was acknowledged as a minister by Uwchlan Monthly Meeting shortly after his marriage.
