 :( Right back to the drawing board with that one then.....  There was a Maria Poole born Jan Feb March 1845  born in Malmesbury which is in Wiltshire. Tracing back from that there were a few John Pooles that married in Malmesbury prior to that Maria being born but none of them married a Mary Hawkins.  There were many John Pooles though in Wiltshire, which is my family history area, and starting in the 1830's  many familys emigrated from these farming areas. The first exodus was in 1836. Maybe some of John Pooles family went at that time and he followed later ???

I wonder if Mary Hawkins was really her mother's maiden name...it was her husband (Edward Hilton) who entered the information on her death certificate...could he have been wrong...could it be misspelled...could she have been born in India as  one of the Census papers states....what other tricks might I use to find her family.....as frustrating as it is...it becomes fascinating and compulsive to reveal the past!!!!

Thanks for all your help Cheryle...your a gem...and each e-mail I think here it is...the answer...someday maybe if we are lucky!!!

Have a great day!!!
