John HAWKINS born abt 1821 (General)
I am trying to trace an ancestor called John Hawkins. He was born abt 1821, Married to Frances Davis in 1851, and died abt 1857. I am having a hard time tracing his family. I do know he was a Stone mason at the time of his death. Any ideas gratefully received.

I think you can eliminate John son of John and Mary. This is 1851 Census:

and this would appear to be the John that is being sought:
