We have 5 generations of printers in the family. John  Hawkins was a printer, so this must be the family I'm trying to trace. I wonder why a Rachel died at 35 years?? Charles was married twice interesting.

The nephew William Stone b Woolwich may be the one in 1861 239/28/6 with parents William and Elizabeth both born Devon.

There are three Elizabeths as possible spouses here but one is Hawkins. https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2DQS-7SR

 :) That could be good if they are correct. I have seen a tree which has Charles marrying Ann Hammond  ???  I can't see that marriage.
There is an Ann Bush in 1861 who fits well for Ann Hawkins of 1871.

 Another tree   gives Ann Hammond / Bush  as aged   40   odd when  she married ,  so  maybe  Bush was  married  name  ,  gives  her   year  of birth  c 1823, 
  1901   census has  Charles and Ann  aged  80 and 82 respectively    living  in South  Mimms

You're right- she's a widow. I didn't check it out, just noted the index.

It all seems to be coming together.

That marriage certificate would confirm Charles' father's name.
