Hi Doug,


William HOOKAWAY was baptised 7 May 1837 Bideford parents William a lab and Elizabeth

John HOOKAWAY was baptised 12 May 1839 Bideford parents William a lab and Elizabeth

William HOOKAWAY = Elizabeth DENNISS 21 Apr 1833 Bideford

It would pay you to follow up on the parish record of the marriage. Please see

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,546609.0.html

That record is a pedigree resource file so it has been submitted and may not be correct. The fathers name may have been taken from a death certificate. Information on death certificates is only as good as the person providing the information. These boys are not with their family in 1861 and I am not spotting them elsewhere. Suggest you try the Australia Board for any Australian records you are after.

hi kris,
           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?.
