Rhoda Hawkins (General)

by llangrove, Monday, April 04, 2005, 17:38 (6933 days ago)

I've lost my g-grand auntie!

Rhoda Jane Hawkins was one of six daughters born, 1846 to James and Jane Hawkins, of West Dean. I have info on the other five sisters, but nothing on Rhoda.

Would SKS come to my rescue???

I've received news of a possible "sighting" in 1871 at Dumbleton Hall. (????)

Many thanks!

The "Dumbleton Hall Rhoda" is spelled, Rheda, on the 1871 Census listing, but my source said it is quite clearly, Rhoda, on the original image.

After the Worcestershire lead, I found a Rhoda Hawkins married to either a Samuel Thomas Page or Sidney Edwin Tipper , December 1869 on Free BMD Index.
I was unable to locate Rhoda, Page or Tipper on 1881 Census. I love these brick walls!

I've had the 1851 and 1881 listings for some time and Slowhands recently posted the info for 1891. Now, new info for Lydia....

Thanks once again for your valuable help, Slowhands!! You are a great help to many of us and a treasure!!!

The above Rhoda Hawkins doesn't appear to be the daughter of James and Jane Hawkins and sister of Lydia, et al. She may be the daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Hawkins.

From LDS record...
