I originate from the North East, and the name Donkin can be found in the Northumberland records. There has been a query in the Northumberland section, here on Rootschat in the last year, about the name Donkin. You may find something to assist if you also visit the Northumberland section.

Hi Oly and Lee,
                         Thanks to you both for the help in finding Elizabeth Donkin now I will hopefully go further back in time with her,  I could never understand why the name Donkin/Dunkin Wright  was given to all my Ancestor ( now I know) from around 1800 to my great granddad Thomas Dunkin Wright 1832/1903 Campsall then for some reason he give up the middle name. Will have to go to Campasll at some point in the summer time to have a look for my self it looks very much like Starbotton and Kettlewell where mum was born.

                 Thank you so much Regards Tom .

hello
i have relatives (distant) brought up thinking their family name was craven from 1871 onwards who are actually holroyds according to birth certificates.
all due to my 4x grandmother having 4 illigitimate children.
going through census they changed their minds whenever they fancied.
will have a go on following donkin line back now.
regards lee
