BRIDGET HUGHES
[Welland Telegraph May 22, 1903]
Mrs Bridget Hughes, wife of Mr Henry Hughes, an old and highly esteemed resident, passed away at the family residence, Queen Street, on Saturday afternoon. Deceased was 65 years of age. She was of Irish birth and had been a resident of Thorold since the early sixties, coming from Ireland with her husband, who was later a member of the Royal Canadian Rifles. She was of a quiet disposition, but by those who knew her most, she was dearly beloved, and her death will be deeply regretted by a wide circle of friends. The funeral took place on Monday morning to the R.C. church, where requiem mass was chanted by the pastor, Rev Father Sullivan, who also officiated at the graveside.
The following acted as bearers: Messrs, John Gearin, John Collins, M Jordon, John Gunning, M Coady and E. Paulin. Interment was at Lakeview cemetery.
