I don't have a lot of information about him, but maybe this is my lucky day. I understand that Hugh was in the British Army (an Accounted Officer), I don't know if he came to N.S., but I think he probably did. He had a son, John, who got land in Musquodoboit. Can't tell if it was a grant, or if he bought it. John was born abour 1788-90, and married Jane Mason of South Rawdon, N.S. I'm assuming Hugh would have been born around 1750 + or -. Hugh would have been my 3rd Grt. Grandfather. I have found quite a bit of information on John and his family, which I will gladly share with anyone. Gloria
