General Notes: Husband - Charles Miles Hughes


He was reared on the old homestead in Cranberry Township, Venango County, PA. He stayed at home until he attained his majority, and meantime had excellent educational advantages and judicious practical training. When twenty-two years old he married, and for a year afterward made his home on the old farm, moving thence to a place of residence in Cranberry Township, what was long known as the old Grimes farm. Mr. Hughes, however, bought the first twelve acres of his property from the Bierys, and added to it as he was able until he had seventy-two acres, where in connection with farming he did considerable work in the way of oil development, having about forty producing wells at one time. Part of the mineral rights were leased to others. In his earlier years he followed teaming for a time, giving up that work as his other interests increased sufficiently to demand all of his attention, and he combined his various activities to good advantage, being one of the well-to-do agriculturists and oil operators of his section. He also took some part in public affairs, having served his township capably in the office of supervisor. Mr. Hughes was a prominent member of the Presbyterian Church, and was honored with the position of trustee. [CAB, 998]
