Judd Grambling...White Man?

I was just reading a historical article that touched on the naming of the area now known as Grambling, La.
Judd Grambling opened a saw mill in the area. The railroad put a station there and named it after Judd. And the rest is what we know.
Anybody know if Judd was a white dude? I can speculate, but I cannot find anybody that knows.
Tia.
Eta: make up my mind

I don’t fall into any of those categories. I would fall under the same category as the Bottom Boys #sharklife

The wikipedia page LINK for Grambling says he was white.
quote:
The school became Grambling College in 1946, named after Judson H. Grambling, a white sawmill owner who donated a parcel of land for construction of the school.
Quite a few of the black colleges are named after white folks. Howard, Morehouse, Spelman, Johnson C Smith, etc.
