Huw Abel of Neston
« on: Tuesday 28 September 04 20:24 BST (UK) »
Hello there,
I am trying to find out about a new branch I have found. I have a Hugh Abel who was born around 1838 in Neston, Cheshire, according to the 1881 census, when he was living in Oldham. He had a wife, Catherine, who, it is said, came from Kilkenny. Any light anyone could throw on the subject would be most gratefully received,
Thanks

Hi
    Here is Hugh Able in 1851 in Little Neston

HO107-2173-F59

Thomas Able  head  37   coal miner   born   Neston
Ellen               wife   38                        ~        ~
Hugh               son   18     ~      ~        ~        ~
Ann                daug  14                        ~        ~
Mary                         12                       ~         ~
Thomas                    9                          ~        ~

John                         1                          ~         ~

Unfortunatly they are not showing up on the 1841 although I feel that they must be there, either I have missed them or they were on a page that was not readable.

regards

 :De Thank you for your prompt replies, which were very helpful.  Ellen, Huw's wife. has changed her place of birth to Ireland by 1881 however.
