*COMPLETED*Look Up Please Hughes Family
« on: Friday 05 June 09 14:44 BST (UK) »
Hello

Trying to verify the parents of Albert Hughes born1916/ 1917, Barnsley, Yorkshire. 

I have received different information from various sources stating that his parents were, Horace Hughes and Hetty Clegg.

After obtaining  a copy of Albert and Lily's  marriage certificate, it shows that his father was Robert Hughes.

Taken from his marriage certificate in  1935 Albert lived 8 Chapel Square, Worsborough.

How old was he on his marriage cert in 1935

Just for info - Horace & Hetty married in 1911 and did have a son Albert born in 1917 in Barnsley

Thank you

The registration posted by Pam above is the only one in Barnsley between 1914-1917 if you exclude the Hughes/Clegg Albert

There is no corresponding marriage in Barnsley between a Robert Hughes and a Powell so you are going to need a copy of the birth cert as suggested above

I would recommend you put a condition on your application that you only want it if fathers name was Robert

If it's the wrong Albert - the GRO will only charge a £3 search fee
