| AdminHistory | This W.H. is to be very carefully distinguished from the obstinate W.H. of the will 1742: the latter was the eldest son of the elder Lewis Hughes, this W.H. is grandson of L.H., son of the John and Ellin of documents DIN/234 - DIN/238, and ostensibly heir-at-law of the W.H. who died 1754. Mr. J.E. Griffith (Pedigrees, 71) makes two particularly bad mistakes concerning him - calls him an attorney instead of a barrister of the Middle Temple, and says he made his will in 1744, when this collection speaks of his very advantageous marriage in 1784 (DIN/240). |
