Emrys Hughes, or Emlyn Hughes? edit

The saints.org.uk website has an Emlyn Hughes transferring from St. Helens to Huddersfield in 1938 and becoming a Welsh rugby league international while there. According to saints.org.uk Emlyn Hughes is the brother of Fred Hughes, and hence the uncle of Emlyn Hughes (Liverpool/England). The date of birth on saints.org.uk of 16 January 1910 is inconsistent with the body text, which states he made his début aged-22 for St Helens on 5 September 1936, dictating a circa-1914 birth. I cant find anything on the llanellirfc.co.uk website, but it would appear to be the same person, but is it Emrys Hughes, or Emlyn Hughes?
