Hi
Hope someone can help. I'm looking for Thomas Hughes c1841 in Ireland. I have found him in 1891 at 6 Prospect Road, Parr, Lancs.
He is living with his wife, Ellen c1839, 2 children Mary, c1869, and John c1871, and his grandson, Peter 1889.
I'd like to know where the family were previous to1891.
Thanks
Rachael
Hi Rachael this post was a few years ago so this is a long shot but I'm looking for the same family!!!
My GGGrandfather was Thomas Hughes b1841 Clifden Galway married to Ellen.
His son Patrick b1866 was my GGrandfather and his youngest son John b1903 my Grandfather.
I'm thinking I've found a relative???
Hope to hear from you soon Patzy.
Wow! Lovely to hear from you.I have not looked at my family tree in ages.
Mary Hughes was my G.Grandmother. Her son Peter was illegitimate but kept him in the family. Mary married Henry Costello and went on to have 11 more children. My grandad Joseph (Joe) Costello was the youngest born in 1910. After the war Joe settled at the other side of the Pennines in Yorkshire.
I have not really researched the tree back earlier as I have no idea where I would go to access Irish records. Im unsure if part of family were born in Westbury or Wednesbury as the census seems to contadict each other.
