Hughes in Mold

[mudmonster]

Hello,I am searching for a Louisa Hughes born in Mold in 1843,I have found her in the 1861 welsh cencus in Rhyl she is listed as Niece to the head and a dressmaker,I can find no trace of her in 1851
Thanks

where is she in later census years? Who did she name as her father on her marriage certificate?

There's a possible birth reg for Louisa Catherine Hughes march qtr 1843 Holywell vol 27 pg 236 mmn blank meaning that she was illegitimate.

[osprey]

forgot to ask if you had tried to trace the Thomas Hughes head of household where she is enumerated as niece.

Possible in 1851 also as a butcher
Argoed, HO107/2501 folio 523 pg 31
Thomas Hughes head mar 47 butcher master
Mary wife 49
Henry son 17
Thomas son 13
William son 11
Elizabeth dau 11
all born Mold
but no daughter Charlotte as there is in 1861.

Thanks Osprey,yes that is my tree,I have already found Thomas and Mary and the rest of family,Louisa is a person i am trying hard to link up with,I had seen the one born in 1843 Holywell district didn't know she was illegitimate though.Found most of the children,Elizabeth 1848 is missing and cannot find Thomas 's wife Mary in the 1861 either,the hunt goes on!!

Oh by the way Charlotte married a Joseph Bloor in Liverpool but died in 1880's as did Joseph

[osprey]

Thomas & Mary are evidently not living together as Thomas is in court for not maintaining his wife.

Thanks Osprey for all that info,I always thought his wife was Mary as it says that on all the cencus going back to 1841.As you are very good at finding things can you help me to trace a double wedding that took place in Rhyl April 9th 1917 (don't even ask me the dynamics of the families involved)
Thanks

9 April 1917 would have been a Monday.

Using the advanced search here for the specific month, haven't spotted anything likely.

I've checked the parish registers
Holy Trinity, Rhyl nothing between 14 Feb & 20 Aug

St Thomas comes up trumps
9 April 1917
Henry Hughes 50 widower grocer 22 Gronant St father William Hughes (deceased) cattle dealer
Alice Holmes 56 widow 17 Elwy St father William Leigh (deceased) engineer
