I think this is your group in 1851 in Staunton Parish
which I suspect means they are at Coal Pit Hill , a very small hamlet between Staunton and Christchurch / Berry Hill
( Coalpit Heath is over the River Severn near Bristol)

Given the Wintle / Teague connection its quite possible she is more than a family friend, although at the time perhaps no one realised she "was" a distant cousin - Its a small world after all :-)
Thanks!!
Slowhands,
Thank you so much for your help.
I have been trying to find out about our english relatives
since I was a boy. I have an old postcard of the Clock tower in
coleford, a pocketwatch that belonged to Thomas Hawkins,
(with the original bill of sale!)
and grew up listening to stories ...My GGGGrandfather was Thomas Hawkins.
My GGGrandfather was Marcus Hawkins (typo Morkins)
All I knew is they were coal miners from Coleford...Now look how far we have come!
Your information brought a tear to my eye! I wish my Grandfather was
still around for me to share the info with.
I hope to visit one day, I can't wait to see the Forest, and all the places
I have read about.Maybe I'll catch the Coleford Festival!
Any Ideas on which way to go to find James Hawkins Parents?
Again Thanks a million!
Brian K.Hawkins
Thanks!!

No problem - enjoy digesting this lot !
I had hoped that James would show with a family member in 1841 , alas he appears to be living alone....
We do have Church records , that may resolve this , I'll check a few other sources. and you may be lucky, another "helper" may read this and post the answer...
