<title>Thomas SMITH 1884 Joyford/ Berry Hill (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don't know if this helps you up the tree with your Hawkins of Newland research, but I have seen a connection between Hawkins of Newland and Bedoes of Awre.   (I found it while looking an the ancestry, largely by female chain, of Ann Shaw, b. 14/11/1793, wife of William Sterry, born c. 1794 believed Minsterworth, a chain provided by the correspondent known on here as &quot;howellhouse.&quot;)</p>
<p>The transcribed Awre marriage records available on this site show a wedding on 17/05/1701 between Ann Bedoes of that parish and Edward Hawkins, stated to be &quot;of Newland.&quot;</p>
<p>The Newland transcriptions give the baptism of an Edward Hawkins there on 21/07/1672, with the father as Henry and the mother as Elizabeth, and the residence as &quot;of Colford&quot;.   A Henry Hawkins is shown baptised Newland on 09/12/1627, father shown as Peter &quot;of Colford.&quot;</p>
<p>I also saw in the transcriptions that an Edward Hawkins was baptised at Newland on 12/09/1651, father Edward, mother Joan.   I supposed that he might have got married at Awre when he was 49, but thought if either of these Edwards was the bridegroom of Ann Bedoes it was more likely to be the baptisee of 1672.</p>

<title>Ann Sophia SLATTER nee ?,1814 - 1877  Cam (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Whittard Chronicles only have Mary Lewton's birth as 1811 and marrying a Thomas Hawkins.  However, on the Forest of Dean website I have found her marriage on 18 Aug 1857 at age 46 and still a spinster to Thomas Hawkins a widower aged 58 of Newland.   She was living in Ross.   The Record ID is 53833 so that you can confirm it.   What a wonderful site this is!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks for your prompt reply!</p>
<p>Hmmmmm.....I have the right sister, but wrong maiden name....I think!  My true interest is Thomas HAWKINS!  I'm trying to determine IF he is a brother to my <br />
G-G-grandfather, James Hawkins.  Would you by chance know where he was baptised...... before I pursue this &quot;wild goose&quot;?</p>

<title>Ann Sophia SLATTER nee ?,1814 - 1877  Cam (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi,<br />
Yes I am still here!<br />
Mary Hawkins was the sister of Ann Sophia, Mary nee Lewton.   The only information I have about her was that she was christened on 6 March 1814 at Dursley Independent Nonconformist Church and married Thomas Hawkins.  They were two of the children of Lucina Sarah Whittard and Alfred Lewton.    I have a family tree for Lucina.</p>

<p>You said Ann Sophia Slatter was your ancestor.  Do you have any idea who the Mary HAWKINS listed in the census is, and/or her connection to this family?<br />
Is it possible that Ann Sophia was married before she wed Thomas Slatter?  Thanks!</p>

<title>Henry  HAWKINS, 1810 Newland (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear &quot;Slow&quot;...</p>
<p>Just when I'd given up hope of ever finding them, you perform another one of your miracles!  Thank You!</p>
<p>Now, IF you really want to impress me, how about finding Thomas William Hawkins (or Smith) who was born to Harriet Hawkins on 12 October 1883.  His baptism as well as my grandfather Albert's were on this site, but both were removed. (???? I'm glad I printed a hard copy of both!!!)  Thomas was not with the rest of the family in 1891 or 1901.  We have already explored the possibility of him living with Harriet's cousin, Benjamin Hawkins, in Yorkshire.  I now have Thomas' birth certificate, the dates don't match.</p>
<p>Some women are never satisfied! <br />
 <br />
Kind Regards,<br />
Cynthia</p>

<title>Sons of Thomas and Elizabeth HAWKINS, Newland</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I'm looking for two brothers, Thomas and Henry Hawkins.  They were the sons of Thomas and Elizabeth (nee' Stephens) Hawkins.</p>
<p>Thomas Hawkins was baptized, October 15, 1797  Newland.<br />
Henry Hawkins was baptized, June 17, 1810 Newland.  I think he married Ann Smith, March 25, 1830  Newland.</p>
<p>Any help will be appreciated!  Thanks!</p>
