Henry Hudson

June 1611

Explorer Gazette

In June of 1611 Hudson set sail.  The crew thought Hudson was sailing back home, but soon they realized he was sailing west to continue looking for the Northwest Passage.  Wanting badly to9 go home, the angry crew put Hudson, his son, and seven other crewmen into a tiny boat with no oars and left them in the Bay.  Hudson and the others were never heard from again.

So what happened to Henry Hudson no one knows.  People think that the other crewmen left them there to starve and die.
