Lewis Hues, of Lyme

Sarah [Hungerford] lived with her Aunt Anne Leigh and later married Lewis Hughes of Lyme.

According to Allen, Lewis Hues:

Absconded within seven weeks of [his marriage to Martha], taking with him much property belonging to his wife, which occasioned her to transfer her remaining property subject to certain provisions for her maintenance during her lifetime to her son John.

Austin provides further information:

Martha Hues, wife of Lewis Hues, made agreement with her son John Shrieff, which she had by her former husband. Whereas said Lewis Hues was lawfully married to his above named wife Martha, took an occasion privately to go away within six or seven weeks after he was married, taking away great part of her estate that was hers in her former husband’s time. She now surrenders all her estate real and personal to her son John, excepting provisions, bedding, &c, and such things as she formerly gave her daughter Susanna Sheriff, John Sheriff to pay his mother £6, on Dec. 25th yearly for life, and thirty pounds good cheese and two barrels cider, to barrels apples, firewood, foom at north east end of house she now lives in, east part of garden, and keep of a horse or mare.
