Many thanks for your replies.I tried all sorts of combination of entries searching for her!She was indeed the Grand-daughter of Charles and Jemima Hughes.I made the mistake of entering her as the daughter of a Joseph Hughes born in Bagillt Flintshire in c 1878 and his wife Hannah.

Whether this a case of a hopefully premature senior moment or not,I didn't notice that Joseph died in 1910!

This looks like her on Lancs MBD site - it gives her mothers maiden name as EVANS:
