Hi
Looking at his parents gravestone
Mary Margaret Hughes nee Gleeson born 1830 Nenagh, County Tipperary, Ireland
died 11.10.1866.
Richard Hughes born 1800 England died 6.11.1874
Elder brother Clifford born 1841.

Given there is a Richard Hughes convict transported 1830 on the Cumberland from Kent I'd go for this.


Richard seems to have married Charlotte Botten 2.7.1826 Frinsted.
Children - Anne 3.6.1827 Frinsted  and Clifford 14.6.1829 at Lenham.

The children are with Thomas Hughs and Anne nee Clifford married 4.8.1805 Maidstone on the 1841 census at Frinsted.
I'm guessing Richard was their son from before their marriage in 1805.

The parish records for Nenagh Couthy Tipperrary start 1831  but it's a place to start.

Hi
Looked at the Jennings and it looks like Clare and Jennifer's parents were in charge of Avisford Prep School in Sussex
The ex Major Charles Jennings (1881-1979) and his wife Margery Maria Tate (1891-1975) who married in Cairo 29.9.1919 at St Marks Roman catholic chapel.
They had a son Michael 1920-2002 ,Elizabeth Ellen 1924-2003 and there also seem to be Clare ,Jenifer and Patricia Mariella.
I'm struggling to find all the children as some would have been abroad.
Clare ,Michael and Patricia seem to be involved in running the school after Charles death and Jenifer gives the school as an address  on a passenger list to the US in 1948.

The Bromley one as you probably know doesn't seem to have a sister Clare.
I can't spot her in 1939 but the younger children could have been evacuated Overseas given the Army background.Charles and Margery ,and 2 children are at Avisford.

I think you may have to get the marriage cert for James William Dawson.Ancestry suggests a birth 1921 Portsmouth but where that comes from I'm not sure.

Hi Lovely to hear from You
If you have Ancestry then casulties are on there 1950-1957 plus prisoners or War and graves overseas for Us soldiers.

Give us the name and someone could check the record is there.
