| Description/Historical Information: |
Mr. William Andrew Hughes, with stick, outside
the farm house which had been with the Hughes family for many generations.
There is possibly a butter churn outside the front door. William
Andrew was by this time well over 70; he had begun working when only
seven years old. The 1911 census records him as 77 and describes
him as a small farmer. He was living with his wife and 4 of their
children. The farm was called Redhill Farm, Tansley Moor in that
census. His eldest daughter, Rose, who filled in the census form,
was then working for Horace Loveday in Matlock.
He passed away on 29 June 1915 |
