I searched the Census Records from 1880 forward for Greene Co., MS and found Henry and Hattie living in Greene Co., MS in 1920 between the families of William and Ida Hudson and Lorenzo and Olivia Hudson. That made me think that perhaps Hattie was a sister to Wm. and Lorenzo. Therefore, I checked for other census records for Wm. and Lorenzo. I found the following in the US Federal Census for Beat 3, Greene Co., MS taken on June 16, 1900.

Hudson, Belle, Head, F, W, , 30, Wd., Feb. 1870, 6/5
John, son, M, W, 15, S, April 1885
M. C., daughter, F, W, 14, March 1886
Hattie, daughter, F, W, 11, April 1889
Lorenzo, son, M, W, 9, Feb. 1891
William, son, M, W, 7, Jan. 1893

I failed to find Belle and her family in the 1880 Census records in either Alabama or MS.

Birth records for both AL and MS were not officially recorded as early as 1870 so you're not likely to find a record except in a family Bible. However, I did find the following in the 1880 Census for Beat 4 of Washington Co., AL, which borders Greene Co., MS.

1880 Beat 4 Washington Co., AL

Lucas, John, 52, farmer, b. in MS
Naomi L., 44, wife, b. in AL
William E., 24, son, b. in AL
Laura, 21, daughter, b. in AL
John W., 18, son, b. in AL
Lucretia, 13, daughter, b. in AL
