Kia ora from New Zealand,

Looking for descendants of Hugh Hughes and Mary Pritchard who married in 1845 in Anglesey, North Wales.

I understand some of their children left the family home in Caernarfon, North Wales, and moved to Wilkes Barre during the 1800s. Children were Owen Hughes and wife Laura, Jane Hughes and husband Howell, John Hughes and wife Elizabeth,
Mary Hughes and husband Robert Edwards,

I am a great granddaughter of the one sibling who arrived in New Zealand in 1875.

I would welcome contact from any descendants.

Kind wishes for 2009,
Bev

Recently I was gleaning abstracts for the Wilkes-Barre Record (newspaper) and ran across the following:

Feb. 1, 1888 Owen Hughes froze to death.

I did not look for the actual newspaper article as his isn't in my line but if you think he could be yours i can look for it. Please let me know. Contact me at familyseeker95@yahoo.com
