    Wintonian’s Golden Wedding

    Mr & Mrs Jabez Hughes of 168 Worsley Road, Winton celebrated their golden wedding yesterday. They were married on 6th November 1869 by the Rev J Chalmers at Barton Wesleyan Chapel from the house in which they are now living

    Mrs Hughes is a daughter of the late Matthew Mills and her family has occupied the house for over a century. It formerly had a thatched roof but a few years ago was set on fire by a spark from a motor wagon and was afterwards modernised.
    The cottage was one of only about half-a-dozen in Worsley Road at the time Mrs Hughes was born there, 74 years ago, and was then the property of the Bridgwater Trustees and with the others occupied by workmen on the Worsley estates. New Lane was then a rural lane and used chiefly by farmers in Winton, Worsley and Peel Green. It was little more than a cow track and two carts coming in opposite directions had difficulty in passing.

    The old couple enjoy good health and Mr Hughes continues to follow his occupation as a joiner.

    His eldest son, one of seven children, was killed by accident following his employment at the Patricroft Foundry about a year ago.
     
    • Matthew Mills is an error. James Mills was Emma's father.
