Isaac HAWKINS bc 1830

[Mary R]

Can anyone help me find Isaac Hawkins who married Ann French in Whitestaunton on 24/12/1851.  The marriage certificate states that his father was John Hawkins deceased.  Isaac is said to be a labourer.  I  also have the following details:-
1841 Census
Possible found in Dalwood aged 13 a Ag. Lab. living with a William Newberry a yeoman
1851 Census
Found living in Whitestaunton aged 20 a Ag. Lab. for a James Hawkings ( No known relation)  His place of birth is given as Chard but of course he didn't fill the census form in himself so that could be a red herring.
On 25/12/1859 Isaac died aged 33 in Dalwood.  The cause of death was decline.
Isaac and his wife Ann had 3 children.  John born about 1854 although I haven't been able to find his birth certificate. However Wambrook church records record the baptism of John Hawkins the son of Isaac and Ann on 26/05/1854.  The other children were George born about 1857 in Whitestaunton and Ellen born 6 months before her father died in Dalwood.
I would be very grateful if anyone  could give me more information about Isaac particularly any details of his baptism and marriage.
I am uncertain which site to post this message on because of all the boundary changes.  I know Wambrook was transfered from Dorset to Somerset in 1896, and that Dalwood  also moved counties.  Whitestaunton has always to my knowledge been in Somerset. HELP!

Hi Mary R,

Have you tried the Dorset OPC site? It is well worth a try.

Good Luck,

Thanks Francis.  I tried the site a couple of years ago but there has been so many developments online recently that it must be worth another go.  Mary
