it would seem that george lanwarne hawkins one of the sons of james hawkins the primative methodist minister,joined the york and lancaster regiment and then emmigrated to canada and enlisted into the 56th canadian expoditionary force in 1915.he returned to canada in 1917 on a ship called olympic.he was suffering from trench fever.i still dont know if he passed away over in canada or even if he had family over there,or if he came back to the uk.if anybody can help that would be great.
many thanks steven jacklin
