I felt like the sewer who had thought she was able to lean back after her afghan was crocheted and relax. I thought most of the work on my Hughes family was done. I was down to figuring out when and from where they came from the United States. Not so, today as I was trying to find a living Hughes from that line, I came across research that conflicts with mine. That tells me I need to review and reconsider as well as research any new material that has come to light since I last worked on this line. I will have to make time to go the Clayton Genealogy Library in Houston to do some serious book reading and researching. (Not that I have to have my arm twisted or anything.) I love going there, now I have to.
As we push through the garden gate of the old homestead, we are surprised at how much smaller things are than we remembered them, and how much work needs to be done. -The Hummer-

Just When We Think We Are Done

Oh man that is so frustrating. What do they know that I don't know? Did they check their facts or are they relying on someone else's information that was wrong.
ReplyDeleteThe questions...good luck and have fun at the library as only a genealogist can.
Hey....I'm a Hughes! I think we are the only one's from our Hughes clan in England to cross the pond. Where are your's from?
