I am also researching this Hughes family. 
I have no more information about the Hughes family in Ireland than already posted.  I do have further information about Miles in Cumberland, Thomas in the army and his life in Tasmania.
Please contact me for further research.

Hi Mnichols99,

Welcome to RootsChat :)

You have just replied to Roses topic but sadly we have lost touch with Rose some time ago (2012) as her email has stopped working. I am very sorry that we have not been able to put you in contact with one another.

Kind Regards

Sarah
