There are now 80 ( yes that's right EIGHTY) subscribers to our little list. Welcome to all those who have joined us recently - take this opportunity to introduce yourselves and your researches to the list. Don't forget that ALL are welcome to join us for Xmas Dinner at the Beaufort in Hawkesbury on Saturday December 9th (meal served 1pm) . I know that Catherine McIlwrick will be travelling down from Derbyshire and Ray and Cynthia THOMPSON from Worcester will also be attending. Please let me or The Grave Robber know as soon as possible if you are planning to attend. I am currently trying to determine what happened to the family of David HOPKINS. David must have been a naughty boy because he was transported for 7 years in 1835. I know 1 of his daughters stayed in Hawkesbury and married a perhaps related HOPKINS.
