Research Notes

• "Ireland Civil Registration Indexes, 1845-1958," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FYB3-KYC : 10 March 2018), BIRTHS entry for Hugh Bell; citing Banbridge, 1871, vol. 11, p. 187, General Registry, Custom House, Dublin; FHL microfilm 101,048.

This source was included by previous profile manager, who claimed that Hugh was born in Ireland. However, my research says he was born in Berrima. Previous manager notes parents died in NSW, so the whole family had definitely moved here.
