Appreciate this is a very old thread but as Ive been researching Hugh and his family for some years
I'm posting this to help others should they have similar queries and come across it.
Hugh would be my G.G.Grandfather.
Answering the questions raised here:
Alfred was son of John - went to Jersey and stayed there until his death.
Hugh moved to Dorchester then to Bournemouth - In 1861 he is in Thorncombe not Winsham.
The address in Thorncombe would be Winnards Hill Cottage, which in recent times would be Winyards Hill, the cottages were demolished in the 1960s apparently.
For John and Elizabeth I have now identified 12 children in total, plus an additional child where John remarried after Elizabeths death.
