The New York City Death Certificate identifies Hugh's mother as MARY McDONALD, who was born in the United States.  It further indicates that his father JOHN MARTIN was also born in the United States.

When Hugh came to America he worked in bars on the New York City docks.  He cleaned out the spitoons for tips.  He later got a job for the City of New York issuing liquor licenses.  All those bar owners who gave him a hard time when he was down on his luck now had to come to him to renew their licenses
