My grandmother's biological parents then had three other children, which they kept. My grandmother's sister was Mary Anne Snook, who later changed her name to Annie Rodgers. While in her teens she married Gypsy gryengro John Hughes, the son of Robert Hughes and Sarah Davis. John and Annie were married in Tiverton and then sailed for the United States where they continued to live the Romany lifestyle traveling in wagons up and down the Eastern regions of the U.S. John continued as a gryengro and Annie told fortunes. They had six sons, Robert, John, Henry, Abednigo (Ben), Leonard and Noah. The boys were named after John's brothers back in England. Which of Robert Hughes and Sarah Davis
' children do you descend from?
