Black Francis McHugh
Black Francis McHugh, also known as "Proinsias Dubh",〔 was a notorious highwayman, or Rapparee, who 'robbed the rich to give to the poor' at the end of the 18th century. His origins lay in Meencloghore (Scraghy) which borders on the (Northern) Irish counties of Tyrone, Fermanagh and Donegal.〔(Proinsias Dubh )〕
==Black Francis and his gang==
Black Francis and his gang were essentially gentlemen Jacobites who did not go to the Continent after the Williamite War but rather took to the hills and were known as Rapparees, robbing the rich and giving to the poor.〔
The gang included Patrick "Supple Dick" Corrigan, Tom Acheson, Tarlach Mhuiris (Richard Monkham), James Mc Quaid (McCabe?), Brian Mc Alynn and Alex Wright.〔〔 They operated from their base in the Tievemore Mountains (Scraghy Hills) around 1770–1780.〔〔〔(Pettigo History Trail )〕
It is almost certain that Proinsias Dubh's last name was McHugh, however some oral historians call him Corrigan.〔 This may refer to another member of the gang, Supple Corrigan.〔
