Thank you Gins, would you mind having a look on the 41 census for him and for both of them on the 61, there's a big difference in their ages, maybe a mistake by the census taker?

thanks a lot
Kath

Thank you safc for the added info for Joseph Hawkin, There's either a mistake or it isn't his wife, think it could possibly be his son's wife who isn't listed? which is very interesting.

Many thanks

Hi Gins,

Can you give me any more info on the Elizabeth Hurford and Joseph Hawkins who married in1813, is there any way of finding out if they were the parents of Caroline Hawkins b abt 1828 and did they have other children? Is there a Caroline Hurford mentioned in the records?

Many thanks for your help
