Hugh Long (1690-1757)

Hugh Long was born in approximately 1700 in Cornwall, England. No baptism record has been found for Hugh, so his parentage is unconfirmed. It is likely that he is the son of, or related to, the family of Hugh and Temperance Longe (nee Mitchell), who were married in Gwennap on 4th June 1681, due to the names of his children, but this is yet to be proven.

Marriage
Hugh married Mary Rundle at Whitchurch in Devon on the 19th October 1718. The marriage record states that Hugh's residence was Gwennap in Cornwall, and Mary's residence was recorded as Tavistock in Devon. The names of her parents and siblings are currently unknown.

Where the couple initially settled is not yet known. The first record we have for a child of the couple is 6 years later, in 1724 in Northill, Cornwall. Their remaining children were baptised in Gwennap.

Death
Hugh died and was buried in Gwennap on the 12th June 1757, aged approximately 57 years.
