           thank you for the info on the hookways, when the came to australia they dropped the a in hookaways and
        became hookway, i also received an email from the devon family history and they came up with the same
        names but no one else has come up with the name of hookaways?.

hi allen again,
                i don;t have a copy of his marriage cert but on his death cert it says that his father was richard and mothers name is on it, according to my wifes father william and his brother came out on the same boat to melbourne in the 1850s which i can't find any more details on the boat. i have received family trees from various people and the are split on who williams parents are -william and elizabeth according to the lds site or richard and no mothers  name  .

 hi allen,
          i am sorry it was briget, sometime ago i  contacted the devon family history and the chap said he  looked up the parish registers and came back with a   william born in1837 with
     his parents being a william hookaway and mother elizabeth  denniss  so who do we believe??  and that's all he could for me.
