Hello,

In the last few months I have been making a fair amount of headway in linking the various Hawkins lines. I hope to tie in the Wicklow, Wexford and Devon ones, soon. Also, the Sir Anthony Hope Hawkins line.
However, I  am still trying to establish the parents of Sir Anthony Hawkins (Clerk of the Peace). I believe he was born in Cork in about 1775 but had several abodes, including Leopardstown, Dublin and London.  He married Ann Hagerty (various spellings) and they lived for a few years in Enniscorthy Castle (around 1803).  I have lots of information on him but cannot confirm parentage. Anthony was given as father on the marriage record my ancestor, Frances Hawkins.
 
I think the generations fall as follows: 

Generation 1
Alderman William Hawkins b 1618 who died 22 Oct 1680. He was the William of Rathfriland Castle which was destroyed after the 1641 rebellion. He was successor after the Magennis family. Given the lands as a reward for his military achievements in the Civil War. He was also of London. He married .. Grace Thwaites. Their children were:

Generation 2
1.. John.. 1644 - 1689 buried Drumballyroney. Married Mary Johnstone from Gill
Hall Dronmore. The family inherited the Gilford Estate and built the Manor  House at Lessize, this
passed to granddaughter Theodosia Hawkins Magill (1743-1817) who was Countess of Clanwilliam. Theodosia married Sir John Meade, Earl of Clanwilliam.

2.. Elizabeth

3.. Mary b 1659 married Ephraim Thwaites, probably cousin.

(also generation 2)
4.. William 1670 - 23 Nov 1736.  Ulster King of Arms from 1698 until death. Lived Dublin. Married.. Elizabeth Mutlow.

Generation 4
John .. 1701 - 14 Aug 1758  married ..  Mary Magill had son:

Generation 5
James..   1724- 23 Jun 1807 (Right Rev) who became Bishop of Raphoe. He married .. Catherine Keane of Plymouth (sister of Sophie who married Rev George Hamilton of Ossery) had  son:

Generation 6
John ..  1 Aug 1757 - 11 May 1841 Reverend. Studied Trinity College MA. Lived ..The Hall Donegal. Married Anne Montgomery.  Additional information, after the birth date of the Sir Anthony that I'm hoping to find is:   Son of John b 1757 was:

James Hawkins .. 9 Jan 1797 -25 Mar 1880 (Barrister) Married Anne Isabella Law (b 1780) James and Isabella had:

James Staples Hawkins .. b 1837 d 9 Jun 1909  Justice of the Peace, who married Letitia Georgiana Brooke. Their son:
Herbert Reginald Montgomary Hawkins (Capt) 1869 -1946.


In case anyone needs the offspring of John Hawkins and Catherine Keane they are as follows:

John 1752, .. Clerk in Holy Orders, Killebeg married Anne Montgomery (already mentioned above).
William b 1759 d 1836 married Constantia Drought.
James Hawkins Whitshed.  Baronet of Killinecarrick. Admiral of the Fleet. Assumed Whitshed name, in accordance with mother's Will. Lived Scotland (3 years) Studied Astronomy at Oxford.Travelled to Denmark and Russia. Commander in Chief, Cork. Made Baronet 16 May 1834... Married Sophia Henrietta Bentinck 1766 -1852. Sophia came from a very nobel lineage.
Thomas .. in Holy Orders. Dean of Clonfort.
Francis ..   married Helen Barrington
Elizabeth ..  married Benjamin Ball
Catherine .. married John Puget.

Much of my information has come from Burkes peerage etc. and other established sources but some is from gathered notes on Irish visits, other family histories, and online archives.

So If anyone can help link Anthony to his rightful roots,  which I believe is somewhere above!
Or if you have any useful alterations or guidance ... I should be really grateful.

Kind regards
Jill

Thanks,

Mary was the one who was born in Kingstown. David (the first son was born in England).
What I should have said in my original message was that I wondered if, as Mary was born in Kingstown, the family may have been en route to England and not necessarily lived in Kingstown. Am I wright in thinking that the port was there?

Regards
Jill

Thanks again to all those helpful folk, who are assisting me in my quest.

I am now feeling pretty confident that Richard (who probably died 1966) and Agnes Grace Sutton may be buried in Trinity United, Collingwood.

I have sent a lookup request to the church.
Kind regards

Hello,
I am trying to find death dates for Richard William John Sutton and his wife Agnes Grace. They were born in Dublin, Ireland in about 1888.
I have found them (on the voters register) living in Oak Street, Collingwood, Simcoe from 1949 to 1965 but can find no death records.
Could anybody help please?
Kind regards
