Here is Hugh's family in the 1850 and 1860 Franklin County Census. It should fill in some more blanks for you. Note that there is an older George in the household who is probably the brother mentioned in the obit. Wonder if Elizabeth McNelly, age 62 in 1850 and Elizabeth McAnathy, age 79 is 1860, is Sarah Ann's mother? The closeness of dates of birth between Elizabeth born in Ireland and Julian born in PA should narrow down the date of immigration too. Another interesting thing to persue would be Hugh's rise from a laborer in 1850 with no property to a farmer in 1860 with a farm worth over $12,000 (a very nice farm comparing it with other farms in Antrim Twp).
