Hi Gins, Apologies for not answering sooner, I got sidetracked. My cousin in Melbourne asked me to try and find info on a George Hawkins who he believes was born in Bristol in abt. 1823. According to his marriage cert. in 1857 when he married a Margaret Sheehy in Ballarat, Victoria, he is down as being a widower. His father was Joseph Hawkins and his Mother was Caroline ? her surname is the info he's after. One name that has come up is Caroline Goulbourne but he's not been able to find anything on her, also on the marriage cert his Mother's name looks to be Hu???ford but that's a guess. Can you help please? |

Hi Gins, My cousin seems to think that George arrived in Australia a single man and married Caroline May in 1847, whether May is her second christian name or her surname he's not sure. He says she died in 1855 in Aust. and then he married Margaret Sheehy. Doesn't know when he and Margaret died. |

that's not an apology, you have not deleted your rude comment, and you should be much more careful about imputing evil intent to people when you have no ground for doing so, and choose your own words much more carefully |

I apologise most profusely if I misread your comment 'poor Kathleen', but if it wasn't meant to be sarcastic it certainly sounded condescending, perhaps you should choose your words more carefully. Thank you once again for your help. |

I have not the least idea what you are talking about Kathleen, since there was nothing remotely sarcastic in my post ... so I can do without the pointless nastiness and I would strongly advise that you delete your baseless ugly post. |

Is anyone able to check out a Mr. & Mrs. Hawkins with a son and daughter who sailed on the 7th March 1850 from Plymouth to Australia on the SS Maria? |
