Hi Lois,
I came across a website in Canada which has some information on this family. Is it yours?
The site mentions that:
(1) Thomas Hughes (Samuel's brother), of Burton Terrace, Acrefair, was "a most
faithful member of Trinity Presbyterian Church, Acrefair" and was buried at Trefynant
Cemetery in Acrefair in 1927.
(2) Edward William Hughes (Samuel's brother) married Elizabeth "Lizzie Ann"
Jones at the Presbyterian Church, Llangollen Road, Acrefair
If the Hughes' were nonconformists, then the family would not be likely to appear in
the parish registers? There is certainly no mention of a baptism for Samuel in either the
Ruabon or Rhosymedre registers.
I don't think that any records for Trinity Presbyterian Church in Acrefair have ever
been published? The Denbighshire Archive do claim to have copies of "Trinity
Presbyterian Church, Acrefair, births and baptisms, 1924-82, marriages, 1932-80" but
that does not cover the years you are searching for?
I do have a copy of the burial records for Trefynant, but I can't find a burial for
Thomas there???
