It's possible that Hugh might have had dissenter tendencies:
Reference: QSP/1309/2
Title: Torver and Broughton - registration of house of William Jackson called Hasell Hall, and of John Addison, as dissenters' meetingplace
Date: c1729/30
Held by: Lancashire Archives, not available at The National Archives
Equally, it might have been difficult to get to a church in poor weather/private baptisms not recorded in the register/marriage pre 1754 less likely to be recorded
