Hi,
My 4 x great grandfather's sister Elizabeth Bates married Nathaniel Hughes in the Waterford & Lismore Diocese in 1778. They lived in the main street of Wexford, most likely near Allen Street. Nathaniel was an ironmonger and a significant contributor to the community. Although records are scarce, I have determined that Nathaniel's parents were most likely Ambrose Hughes and Ann Low. I also know that the overall Hughes family was a prominent one in Wexford county at this time. If anyone is a descendant of Nathaniel or this Hughes family I would be interested to know more about them.
