Best known for: Mapping the Hudson River and the North Atlantic; Biography: Where did Henry Hudson grow up? Historians know very little of Henry Hudson's youth. He was probably born in or near the city of London sometime between 1560 and 1570. It is likely that his family was wealthy and that his grandfather founded a trading company called the Muscovy Company. At some point in his life Henry married a woman named Katherine.
Definition of submandibular. 1  1 : of, relating to, situated in, or performed in the region below the lower jaw. 2  2 : of, relating to, or associated with the salivary glands inside of and near the lower edge of the mandible on each side.
The mandible, lower jaw or jawbone (from Latin mandibula, jawbone) is the largest, strongest and lowest bone in the face. It forms the lower jaw and holds the lower teeth in place. The mandible sits beneath the maxilla. The bone is formed from a fusion of left and right processes, and the point where these sides join, the mandibular symphysis, is still visible as a faint ridge in the midline.
