Jeffrey Hudson was born on 14th June 1619 in Rutland, England. His parents, three brothers, and a half-sister were all of regular height. Hudson on the other hand was born with normal proportions but with an abnormally short stature, at his tallest measuring at only 43 inches.   


Sir Jeffrey Hudson died in 1682, aged 63 - on an unknown date, in unknown circumstances, buried in an unmarked grave.
