Hugh may have been the son of Richard and Mary Flint.

I have found the family in the 1881 census at the 'back of Ashton New Road': RG11 4042 130 41

Richard Flint, b. c1854 Clayton Droylsden, o. carter
and Mary ?, b. c1851 Wales

Children:

Thomas Flint, b. c1872 Clayton Droylsden
John Edward Flint, b. c1875 Clayton Droylsden
James Flint, b. c1878 Clayton Droylsden
Hugh Flint, b. c1880 Clayton Droylsden

Parents of Edith, Leonard (Lennard) and Pauline (Paulina) are John (31) and Ruth (34). John is a Beer Retailer (own account/at home). The address looks like 8 Garner St and would appear to lie off North Rd, Clayton

There is also a son John (10).

Thanks very much, Phil.

Have to see how, and if, he fits into the Clayton families.

hmmmm going to keep this bookmarked, I have Flints in the same area, but I cant see any of 'my' names so far.

Mine originate from Bollington in Macclesfield, moved to Manchester areas.

Gaille
Manchester – Bate(s) / Bebbington / Coppock or Coppart / Evans / Mitchell / Prince / Smith

Cheshire Latchford – Bibby / Savage / Smith.
Cheshire Macclesfield,  Bollington & Rainow – Childs / Flint / Mc'rea
Cheshire Crewe – Bate(s) / Bebbington
Shropshire Wellington, Wobwell – Smith
Walsall Midds – Smith
Norfolk - Childs / Hanwell / Smith

Also looking for:
Mc'Rea/McCrea – Ireland to Cheshire

And
any relatives of Margaret Bibby married to Thomas Smith all over country

Phil,

Thank you.

Where did you find those details? Does your source cast any light on John and Hugh Flint?

In the meantime, the 1911 census has shown that my colleague descends from James Hunston Flint and Mary Alice nee Yates. He was a green grocer in Flint Street, which was apparently named after him. I cannot see yet how he fits into the wider Flint clan.

I'll start a new thread on the Lancashire board.
