Flintshire / Lookup in LLanasa and Whitford Parish Records
« on: Wednesday 13 November 13 03:36 GMT (UK)  »
I was given a baptism date for my 4th great grandfather Hugh Hughes of 6 Mar 1787. I was finally able to take a look at it. I don't know that this is mine. It states 6 Mar 1787 Hugh son of John Hughes Picton and Dorothy his wife. There is no comma between Hughes and Picton. So I am thinking that Hughes is the middle name and Picton the last.  I was able to find the marriage record for my Hugh Hughes and Ann Hughes, and it appears to be right. I still am unable to find the baptism for their son Paul Hughes who was baptised 27 Nov 1808 in Tre Mostyn village, Whitford, Flintshire, Wales. I am also having a problem with finding all of the children for Hugh and Ann. I have thought about ordering the parish records in book form or on micro fiche, but am unable to determine which ones are the right one to order. Hugh was from Llanasa and Ann from Whitford according to their marriage record. Thank you for suggestions and or help.

Flintshire / Trying to find More Information on Paul Hughes son of Hugh Hughes and Anne
« on: Friday 21 September 12 22:03 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

     I just recently found out that my ggggrandfather Paul Hughes was born to Hugh Hughes and Anne in Whitford, Flintshire, Wales. I know from his Military records that he had to have been born in 1800. This comes from these statements. One he states that he had volunteered for three years with I am assuming the 79th Cameron Highlanders prior to his becoming an Ensign in that unit by the Grace of the Duke of Wellington. He also states that he is 18 when he becomes the Ensign. So give or take a year or two, he should have been born betwee 1798-1802. While stationed in Limerick City, County Limerick, Ireland he meets and marries Lady Maria Louisa Fitzgerald. She is the daughter of Attorney and Notary John Fitzgerald and Anne of Limerick City. I will list his children and who I believe they are named after and maybe this will help.

1. William Carter Hughes b. 1822 Templemore, County Tipperary, Ireland - While Paul is stationed there.
2. Robert Hughes born 1823 Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland
3. John Hughes born 1825 Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland-Named after Maria's father
4. Wellington Hughes born 1826 Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland-Named after the Duke of Wellington
5. Anna Maria Hughes born 1826 Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland-Named after both mom's and Maria
6. Charles Hughes born 1827 Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland
7. Henry Hughes born 1829 Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland-Named after Marias brother Henry
8. Adelaide Hughes born 1833 Adelaide, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada-After the town of Adelaide
9. John Hughes born 1836 Adelaide, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada-After Maria's brother John Coote Fitzgerald
10 Frederick Hughes born 1839 Adelaide, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada-My gggrandfather

I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank You

Carla
