Hi Diane,
My grandmother's cousin Ada Charlotte Daniel Lloyd married Parcy Hignett of Liverpool. Percy was the son of Samuel & Margaret Arabella Hignett. Samuel's brother was John, the tobacco manufaturer, so Theophillus & Percy would be cousins. Percy became a socicitor & lived in the Colwyn Bay area. He & Ada had one daughter, Constance Worthington Hignett. The Worthington part comes from Percy & Theo's grandmother. All I know about the tobacco side is that Hignett's eventually became part of the Imperial Tobacco group. As to what happened to Constance I haven't got a clue! Good luck with your researches,
Sue
