Hi, I would like some information on the christening entry for Edwin Hawkey, who was born about 1848 in Newlyn East.
Also a William Hawkey, who according to census returns was born in Newlyn East about 1790.
Thanks,
Sheila

Oh how sad Sheila

Burial Newlyn East

HAWKEY Jane of Tendreen aged 2 Years 11 Nov 1825

The same date as the second Jane was baptised. Presume you Edwin's mother could not have been very old or her name surely would not have been Jane.  I wonder if the death of one child brought on the birth of the next     

Can't see a burial for the first James

Hello Kris,
Thanks for that information.
I'm not sure that the William Hawkey you found was the right one.
Robert made a will in 1804 but William was not mentioned.
William's status did not fit in with the rest of the family, who were "gentlemen"!
Was there a William Hawkey who died in the 1790's?
I did think that the parish records may have given some indication of who Edwin's father was.
Thanks again.
Sheila
