Hi Both,

Tara,
Yes, I will remove my 'long-shot' parents.

Heywood,
Yes I have searched - I even went through all the 1871 census districts for Wednesbury trying to match family names  - no luck just very sore eyes!

Thanks again

Moggy

Me too

Hey Moggy I do believe I've found a relative!
 
I've been researching my Paternal Irish side for 9yrs now (Tipperary & Kilkenny) but recently lost my Mam and last year I decided to look for her Hughes ancestors from Galway.

My Grandfather was John Hughes b1903 Pewfall Lancs, died in 1928 of his injuries after a pitfall.

My GGrandfather was Patrick Hughes b1866 Wednesbury, Staffordshire and GGGrandfather Thomas Hughes was born c1840 Clifden Galway married to Ellen ? Fairhill Galway.

Mam was only 3yrs old when her father died and my Grandmother remarried soon after so I have no Hughes cousins who Im in contact with, I am really happy to have found your post 

Look forward to hearing from you.
Warmest Regards Patzy (Patricia)

Hi Patzy,

I had almost given up hope on the subject of Thomas and Ellen!

Your grandfather was my grandmother's brother.  I can find 7 children of Patrick and Catherine with John being the youngest and my grandmother, Ellen being the second eldest.

Thomas and Ellen are something of a mystery with no confirmed births/marriage or deaths.  Although I do have slightly more on Patrick and Catherine, John's parents.  I have their tree on ancestry which you would be more than welcome to look at if you are interested?  I am not sure how to send a private email with details.

Hope to hear from you soon and to swap any information that we may have.

Cheers Jo
Jo

PS Patzy,

One of the possible maiden names for Ellen is Nolan and I noticed that you have Nolan's in your tree.

Maybe
