They Sure Liked the Name Hugh, Didn't They? Part 2
See previous post with Hughs 1 through 4 here.
Hugh McLaughlin #5 was born about 1765 to 17701, 2, 3. According to the Augusta (Virginia) Parish Vestry Book, a six-year-old Hugh McLaughlin was apprenticed to John Herdman to become a cooper in 17744. If this is the same Hugh this would place his birthdate about 1767 or 1768. Hugh first appears in the Bath County, Virginia, area records on 8 July 1790 when he is taxed5. He appears along with Daniel, James, Hugh, and John McLaughlin. If this is his first titheable year, this would place his birthdate 1768-1769. He married Jane/Jean Wiley on 14 October 1792 in Bath County, Virginia6. He became constable in Bath about the year 18027, 8. He moved his family to Randolph County, Virginia, about 1817, and many of his children continued on into Ohio and Indiana9, 10. He may have had as many as 12 children11.
