I am still looking for my Hughes family. I hope someone out there can help
me. Maybe even find some living family.
I am looking today for the family of Leonard Hughes.
Leonard was born in 1910 in Blaenau Festiniog. Son of Blodwen Hughes and
unknown father. No father was listed on his birth cert. I looked on BMD and
found Leonard Hughes/Leonard Brierley married to Lucy Huggins in Blaenau
Festiniog 1934. Leonard died unknown. Did he have children? Unknown.
Sometime after Leonard died Lucy married Fred Jenkins in Barrow 1973. I have
not yet sent for Leonard's marriage cert. I am unsure why he is also listed
on marriage as Leonard Brierley unless this is his father and he knew who he
was or maybe mother Blodwen's married name
if she married and he used that name. I found Leonard in the 1911 census
living with his grandparents Evan & Elizabeth (Roberts) Hughes and an uncle
Evan Hughes in Blaenau Festiniog. Mother Blodwen was a servant and living
Lancashire Engand.
Thank You,
Janice Beeson
